In 1956 the Newark Panthers were established in NFL the first draft pick of the Newark Panthers was Luke Williams quarterback (QB) out of Clemson. After that they got a wide receiver (WR), a linebacker (LB) and some other positions. The Newark Panthers were always the underdogs and this is about the time they won the Super Bowl.
