From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 1974 National Football League Draft was held on January 29-30, 1974. During this draft, it is considered by experts that the Pittsburgh Steelers had the best draft in NFL history. It was during this draft that they selected 4 Hall of Famers. The closest any other team has come to taking 4 Hall of Famers in a draft was several teams that drafted 2 Hall of Famers (Including the Pittsburgh Steelers themselves in 1970).
