Mel Blount ‘Probably The Top Guy’ Who Could Play In Any Era: Jack Ham

Jack Ham was a pretty good player back in his day. One of the best, in fact. In recent days, a sudden debate has flared over whether or not he could play the game in this day, thanks to former NFL executive Doug Whaley, who made a profoundly silly comment about Ham being too undersized to play in the NFL today.

But the good news is that we ended up getting a radio interview with Ham out of it, popping on 93.7 The Fan on the Cook & Joe Show with hosts Ron Cook and Joe Starkey, and as it turns out, he’s still a good interview today, and thoughtfully spoken to boot.
