John Elway was almost a 49er and Joe Montana was almost a Colt.

In ESPN Films “30 for 30” documentary “Elway to Marino” which chronicles the historic 1983 NFL draft, John Elway’s agent, Marvin Demoff, dropped this bombshell: Bill Walsh explored the possibility of trading Joe Montana in a deal that would have sent Elway to San Francisco.
