WRANGLERS
TRIVIA |
| -- |
| When
the Arizona Wranglers and Chicago Blitz
"swapped" franchises after the 1983
season, among the assets traded were the draft
choices of the respective teams. |
| -- |
| This
further hurt the Wranglers, as the Blitz had
qualified for the playoffs in 1983, resulting in
the team picking 16th. |
| -- |
| The
"new" Wranglers resembled the 1983
Chicago Blitz in that George and Bruce Allen
wheeled and dealed away picks with reckless
abandon. |
| -- |
| The
team dealt away picks in the 1984 draft's 2nd,
3rd, 4th, 6th, 7th, 10th, 14th, 15th, 17th, 18th
and 19th rounds. |
