On this day in Steelers history, members of the team s 1974 NFL Draft Class were selected.

Lynn Swann. Jack Lambert. John Stallworth. Mike Webster.
All four players were selected by the team in the first five rounds of the NFL Draft on this day in 1974.

On that January day no one could have had an inkling of the success the four Steelers legends would have. But as is the case even until today, some tried to give their analysis.
