Fairbanks drafted Grogan who scored 12 rushing TDs in 1976. Obviously, he liked his QB to be a running threat thus he spun off Plunkett to SF for a slew of draft picks.

Mike Haynes joined in week 12, and other that that hiccup against StL they looked very good as a team. His acquisition put them over the top IMO.
