San Francisco 49ers' top 9 NFL Draft steals of all time
How did these particular late-round 49ers picks became NFL Draft-day heists?
By Scott Conrad
No. 6: DE Charles Haley, Round 4, 96th pick overall (1986)
The star selection out of James Madison University was a part of the 49ers' Super Bowl wins in 1988 and 1989. After the 1991 NFL Season, Charles Haley took his talents to the Dallas Cowboys where he would win three more.
That trade from the Niners goes down as one of the most infamous in franchise history.
During his stint with the Cowboys, Haley became the first NFL player to ever win five Super Bowl rings. After a year off, he came back to play his final two seasons with San Francisco.
With over 500 tackles and 100.5 sacks, Haley was a revered threat on defense. He also produced 26 forced fumbles and recovered eight, along with a pair of interceptions and one defensive touchdown.
