Defensive End
1st Round
Alabama
The Jets have continued the rebuilding of their defense with this consensus All-American and unanimous All-SEC, who was named most valuable defensive lineman for the South in the Senior Bowl. 'Marty was our best player,' says Bear Bryant.
In 1978 Lyons led the Tide with 119 tackles, including 15 QB sacks, caused four fumbles, recovered a fumble and broke up a pass. In 1977, after replacing Bob Baumhower, now with the Dolphins, he had 59 tackles (34 solo), five quarterback sacks and two fumble recoveries. Lyons made 11 tackles in the Crimson Tide's victory over Ohio State in the Sugar Bowl.
