I remember '83 when the Jets took Ken O'Brien with the 24th pick and Dan Marino went at 27. I had never seen Marino play in college, but I watched his first start in the NFL and I thought he was already as good as any QB in football. From the moment Marino stepped onto an NFL field, he was a superstar. I was shocked that he went so low. Miami had the winningest record in the NFL during Marino's career and made the playoffs ten times. Ken O'Brien stunk.

Marino had cocaine rumors following him as I recall.
