Steve Young took a circuitous route to the San Francisco 49ers. Young played college ball at BYU. He signed with the USFL Los Angeles Express and then joined the Tampa Bay Bucs, who made him a first-round pick in a supplemental draft of USFL and CFL players. After two poor seasons with Tampa Bay, Young was dealt to the 49ers. All he did in SF was win three Super Bowls, become a two-time league MVP and seven-time Pro Bowler. Young threw for 33,124 yards and rushed for another 4,239.
