Steve Sloan — 1966
11th round, 156th pick, Falcons
Sloan was backup QB to Namath during the 1964 season but also served as a defensive back. He took the reins from Namath for the final two games of the season after Bear Bryant benched Namath for disciplinary reasons and led the team to a 10-1 record in 1964 when Namath was hurt. Sloan had an extremely short NFL career, never throwing a touchdown in eight games with the Falcons. He would later go serve as head coach at Vanderbilt, Texas Tech, Ole Miss and Duke before returning to Tuscaloosa as Bama’s AD from 1987-89.
