  • 1967 APBA PRO FOOTBALL SET ROSTER the Following Players Comprise the 1967 Season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set
    1967 APBA PRO FOOTBALL SET ROSTER The following players comprise the 1967 season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set. The regular starters at each position are listed first and should be used most frequently. Realistic use of the players below will generate statistical results remarkably similar to those from real life. IMPORTANT: When a Red "K" appears in the R-column as the result on any kind of running play from scrimmage or on any return, roll the dice again, refer to the K-column, and use the number there for the result. When a player has a "K" in his R-column, he can never be used for kicking or punting. If the symbol "F-K" or "F-P" appears on a players card, it means that you use the K or P column when he recovers a fumble. Players in bold are starters. If there is a difference between the player's card and the roster sheet, always use the card information. The number in ()s after the player name is the number of cards that the player has in this set. See below for a more detailed explanation of new symbols on the cards.

  • He's with Who?
    HE’S WITH WHO? Although only about eight percent of the free agents available switched teams this year, it seemed that this offseason contained an unusual amount of big-name switches through trades and free-agent signings. Five running backs coming off 1,000-yard performances in TRAVIS HENRY (now with Denver), THOMAS JONES (New York Jets), JAMAL LEWIS (Cleveland), AHMAN GREEN (Houston), and TATUM BELL (Detroit) will don new uniforms this season, as will running back WILLIS MC GAHEE (Baltimore), a two-time 1,000-yard rusher. Several quarterbacks, including TRENT GREEN (Miami) and MATT SCHAUB (Houston), will be under center for a new team this season. Five-time All-Star wide receiver RANDY MOSS will now catch passes from TOM BRADY in New England. Linebackers with Pro Bowl experience like DONNIE EDWARDS (Kansas City), CATO JUNE (Tampa Bay), JOEY PORTER (Miami), TAKEO SPIKES (Philadelphia) and ADALIUS THOMAS (New England) will be lining up for new teams in 2007. “I knew there was a chance I might be traded,” says Jones about ultimately landing with the Jets. “The Jets were definitely my first choice.” Some notable players who changed teams this offseason: PLAYER NEW TEAM 2006 TEAM TRANSACTION S Adam Archuleta Chicago Washington Trade RB Tatum Bell Detroit Denver Trade WR Drew Bennett St. Louis Tennessee Unrestricted FA CB Dre Bly Denver Detroit Trade QB David Carr Carolina Houston FA CB Nate Clements San Francisco Buffalo Unrestricted FA S Donovin Darius Oakland Jacksonville FA CB Jason David New Orleans Indianapolis Restricted FA G Leonard Davis Dallas Arizona Unrestricted FA G Derrick Dockery Buffalo Washington Unrestricted FA S Mike Doss Minnesota Indianapolis Unrestricted FA RB Reuben Droughns NY Giants Cleveland Trade LB Donnie Edwards Kansas City San Diego Unrestricted FA LB London Fletcher Washington Buffalo Unrestricted FA QB Jeff Garcia Tampa Bay Philadelphia Unrestricted FA TE Daniel Graham Denver New England Unrestricted FA RB Ahman Green Houston Green Bay Unrestricted FA QB Trent Green Miami Kansas City Trade WR-KR Dante Hall St.
