It was shame they let Jaworski get away. Haden was a Rosenbloom favorite with his USC connection.
I read that on this site by several posters understanding that CR attended quite a few USC games and fell for Haden back then. I really never felt Jaworski got a fair shot and part of that issue was with GM Don Klosterman who commented about how inaccurate Jaworski was that Jaws threw a beer can at him at a function just to prove him wrong, so bad blood, but Klosterman drafted Jaworski.
Carroll Rosenbloom forced Knox's hand as Knox wanted to go with Harris, but Rosenbloom felt, it was hard enough to play QB in the NFL, race should not be a question everyday. It was the 70's. Again for me, it seemed every time Jaworski got the chance he answered and I believe they ready to him in 1976, but he did not play well against the Falcons in the first game and then got hurt only playing in 5 games in 76.
