I had no idea Art and Thelonious Monk were related.  So many fun facts on this board/thread.

sc49erfan15 gets on the board. Paul Warfield it is. 

 

I. Warfield played for the Dolphins - 5 SB appearances and Browns - 0 SB appearances.

II. Warfield's Dolphins were the first team to appear in three straight Super Bowls.

III. In 1970, Warfield was traded from the Browns to the Dolphins for a draft pick that the Browns used to select Purdue QB Mike Phipps. Phipps was highly touted coming out of college but he didn't amount to much in the NFL. (Trust me, I was around to see Phipps play.) 

IV. The Browns played in the AAFC before joining the NFL. The Dolphins were an AFL team. Warfield played in the WFL.

V. Warfield was the primary receiver on a play suggested by President Richard Nixon in Super Bowl VI against the Cowboys. According to Shula, the President called the coach before the game and said the Dolphins could hit Warfield on a "down and in pattern."

I just guessed Paul Warfield a little too early.

Brandon Jacobs?

 

SFGiants58 is on the board with Brandon Jacobs. 

 

I. Jacobs played for the Giants - 5 SB appearances and 49ers - 6 SB appearances. 

II. Jacobs was "Earth" in the Giants RB combo that was called "Earth, Wind, and Fire." Ahmad Bradshaw was "Fire" and Derrick Ward was "Wind."

III. Another nickname for Jacobs was "Juggernaut." 

IV. In 2010, Jacobs was fined $10,000 for throwing his helmet into the stands after a game against the Colts at Lucas Oil Stadium.

Round XI

 

I. The teams I played for have a combined total of 12 Super Bowl appearances. 

II. I am one of just 8 players to achieve this statistical milestone in a season for this team. I did it twice.

III. The year I was drafted, Mel Kiper Jr. called me the "most overrated pick on the board." 

IV. You might have seen me in this movie about a college football team.

V. I am considered one of the first "victims" of the Madden Curse.

Dorsey Levens?

 

See Red gets the win in a photo finish. Dorsey Levens is correct.

 

I. Levens played for the Packers - 5 SB appearances, Eagles - 2 SB appearances, and Giants - 5 SB appearances.

II. He is one of just 8 RBs to have rushed for over 1000 yards in a season for the Packers.

III. In his analysis of the 1994 draft, Mel Kiper Jr. labelled Levens "the most overrated pick on the board." Another great call, Mel. 

IV. Levens played Xavier's head coach in "We Are Marshall." 

V. According to his Wikipedia page, Levens is considered one of the first victims of the Madden Curse. Why that is isn't entirely clear. I think it had something to do with an injury after the 1999 season.
