Add Billy Cannon…
He was drafted #1 by the NFL’s Los Angeles Rams AND #1 by the startup league AFL’s Houston Oilers.
He actually signed with BOTH teams resulting in a law suit being filed between the teams. The judge ruled in favor of the Oilers based on the Rams taking advantage of Cannon’s “naivete” and thus voiding the contract with the Rams.
Cannon’s contract with the Oilers made him the first $100,000 professional football player. Plus the contract required the Oilers to buy a new Cadillac for Cannon’s father.
