No. 13 | 1978 draft
Pick 7: TE Ken MacAfee
Pick 24: LB Dan Bunz
MacAfee’s short career pushed this one way down the list. He was a three-time All-American at Notre Dame, but lasted only two seasons in the NFL. He caught 46 passes for 471 yards and five touchdowns, but opted to quit football when the 49ers requested a position change. Getting only two seasons out of the No. 7 pick is less than ideal.
Bunz had a longer career that included a huge stop at the goal line against the Bengals in Super Bowl XVI. However, he never made a Pro Bowl and started 62 of his 82 games across seven years in San Francisco. He was a fine player who’s tackle in the Super Bowl made him worth the first-round investment.
