NFL Hall of Famer &49er All Time Great Jerry Rice &
Flimmaker Jacquie Taliaferro @ Lake Tahoe Celebrity Golf Tournament
When entering the NFL Draft, coaches and franchises should remember sometimes you have to dig deep to get gold. For the San Francisco 49er's it was deep in the heart of Mississippi where they struck gold drafting Rice from "Mississippi Valley State College." Who Knew? He'd be the all-time NFL leader in touchdowns scored with 208, selected to the Pro Bowl 13 times (1986–1996, 1998, 2002) and named All-Pro 11 times in his 20 NFL seasons and that he'd win three Super Bowl rings playing for the San Francisco 49ers and an AFC Championship with the Oakland Raiders. His 48-yard touchdown catch in the 4th quarter in Super Bowl XXXVII made him the first player ever to catch a touchdown pass in 4 different Super Bowls.
Joel Thorman says the Kansas City Chiefs used the NFL Draft to fill some holes for the team. Upcoming season will prove if they got a few gold nuggets filling those holes.
