Nebraska's Joe Orduna and Bob Newton, drafted in the second
and third rounds respectively by professional football teams, will
have good arguments for healthy contracts. Top choices always
do. But lower round draft picks Dan Schneiss and Paul Rodgers,
although not signing for as much money, may find it easier to step
into a starting position.
The reason is simple. Both Schneiss and Rodgers were drafted
by teams of the future. Schneiss went to Boston in the 1 1th round
and Pittsburgh grabbed Rodgers as its eighth choice.
But Newton will be fighting for a line position with the rugged
Chicago Bears and Orduna will be trying to crack the starting
lineup of a much improved San Francisco 49er team.
"I couldn't be happier," said Schneiss who was drafted as a tight
end instead of fullback. "The only way Boston can go is up."
Make that up, up and away. The Patriots gained Stanford
quarterback Jim Plunkett as their No. 1 choice.
"That has to be a big asset getting Plunkett," said Schneiss.
"And I'm happy to jjc with a young team because it will give me a
chance to get used to playing tight end.
"I had nothing to say about being drafted as a tightend. All I
know is that Boston was looking for someone who can block and
catch the ball. I think I have a good chance of playing."
Schneiss, as Rodgers, is not planning on dealing with an agent
before signing a contract. And neither listed what price they will be
seeking.
Rodgers said he was "happy to be drafted by anybody." But he
was also happy he went with a learning team-Pittsburgh.
"There's a lot more pressure on you if you sign with a top
team," said Rodgers. "This way I feel I have a chance to be the No.
1 kicker and being with a team like Pittsburgh will give me a
chance to get some of my stuff down."
Orduna said he will be seeking a $35,000 contract with the
49er.
"Those drafted in the second round usually have abargainning
range between $25,000 and $50,000." said San Francisco's second
round choice. "But I'm trying to be a little more realistic and will
probably settle for around $35,000."
Orduna, who was married after the Orange Bowl, is pleased to
be playing with a West Coast Team. "My wife is from Los Angeles
and she loves to be by the ocean," Joe explained.
Newton will be aiming at a $25,000 contract when his talks
begin with the Bears.
"Chicago called me and said they needed some offensive line
help," said Newton. "The coach said I would have a good chance
to play. They're probably counting on me at tackle and not
guard."
Both Newton and Orduna are dealing with agents in the form of
friends. A lawyer in Lincoln is handling Newton while Orduna is
being handled by a lawyer from Dallas.
