Floyd Little (Paperback)

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Floyd Douglas Little (born July 4, 1942 in New Haven, Connecticut) is a Pro Football Hall of Fame running back, and was a three-time American football All-American running back at Syracuse University, following in the footsteps of many great running backs at Syracuse such as Jim Brown and Ernie Davis. In 1967 Floyd Little was the 6th selection of the first common AFL-NFL draft. He was the first ever first-round draft pick to sign with the American Football League's Denver Broncos where he was known simply as "The Franchise" for saving the team from certain relocation by forcing the expansion of Mile High Stadium and generating a string of sellouts that lasts today.
