NEW YORK — There’s
much to be said in defense of
Tuesday's NFL draft.
Much of the pre-draft talk
«entered around the diluted tal
ent available at the offensive
skill positions and it’s true the
United States Football League
had a major impact on a first
round largely devoid of glam
our names.
But a lack of glamour doesn’t
translate into a lack of ability
and the draft was very deep in
quality defensive personnel.
Some of the NFL’s weak links
have been strengthened consid
erably with the addition of ex
citing defensive prospects.
The Chicago Bears appear to
have pulled off some of the ma
jor coups of the draft, grabbing
a pair of standout linebackers in
Wilber Marshall of Florida and
California’s Ron Rivera. Mar
shall’s hard-driving agent, Rich
ard Bennett, scared off the Oil
ers, who picked No. 2, but the
Bears decided they couldn’t
The USFL took two big name stars out of the
draft with the signing of Young and Heisman
Trophy winning running back Mike Rozier.
Now the NFL is determined to sign the rest out
the talent.
pass up a player ranked with
Michigan State’s Carl Banks as
the premier linebacker in the
draft.
“I wanted to play in the NFL
all along,” said Marshall, who
flew to Chicago with Bennett to
immediately start negotiations
with the Bears. “Chicago is a
great team and I think I can
help them out.”
Rivera, 6-foot-2, 230, could
fit in nicely at inside linebacker
next to All-Pro Mike Singletary
and if Marshall fulfills his po
tential as a blitzer from the out
side, the Bears will he tough to
beat in the weak NFC Central.
Chicago also gambled on All-
America guard Stefan Hum
phries of Michigan in the third
round. Humphries has been de
bating between playing pro
football and going to medical
school.
Although the New York Gi
ants are well set at outside line
backer, with superstar Law
rence Taylor and steady
veteran Brad Van Pelt backed
by promisng Andy Headen,
they named Banks with the No.
3 choice in the draft and they’ll
find a place for someone with
his talent.
“He has a chance to be a
dominating player in this
league,” says New York Coach
Bill Parcells of the 6-3, 230-
pound Banks, who could be
shifted inside next to Harry
Carson. His presence could also
accelerate plans to unload the
disgruntled Van Pelt.
The Giants also grabbed off a
pair of promising tackles, Bill
Roberts of Ohio State and Con
rad Goode of Missouri, and
drafted West Virginia quar
terback Jeff Hostetler in the
third round.
The Cincinnati Bengals,
whose concern about shelling
out big bucks for players, was a
factor in Brigham Young quar
terback Steve Young’s signing
with the USFL, will need some
deep pockets to pay the cash for
their three opening-round
picks.
Decimated by USFL defec
tions at linebacker, the Bengals
grabbed Arizona inside line
backer Ricky Hunley and then
added two behemoths in de
fensive tackle Pete Koch of
Maryland and North Carolina
tackle Brian Blados. With the
No. 38 pick, Cincinnati selected
the only quarterback to go in
the first two rounds, Maryland’s
Boomer Esiason.
Other clubs earning high
marks are the New York Jets,
who took two superior athletes
in defensive back Russell Carter
of Southern Methodist and Ar
kansas defensive end Ron Fau-
rot, and Atlanta, which is pin
ning its draft hopes on the j
University of Oklahoma.
The defenseless Falcons
picked off Oklahoma defensive J
tackle Rick Bryan, a standout
against the rush, Sooners’ safety i
Scott Case and linebacker 3
Thomas Benson of Oklahoma, i
Atlanta’s fourth pick, Clemson -
cornerback Rod McSwain,
could well earn an immediate '
starting spot in a porous sec
ondary.
The USFL took two big name
stars out of the NFL draft with
the signing of Young and Heis- •
man Trophy winning running !•
back Mike Rozier. Now the NFL ;
is determined to sign the talent »

Now the Bengals are enter-
ing negotiations with their eyes J
wide open and their wallets only ^
partially zipped.
