-•	A strange situation ensued when both the Raiders and the Colts claim to have signed Arizona State halfback [[Tony Lorick]].
-•	Lorick was the Raiders' first-round draft pick and the Colts' second-round pick.
-•	A //Los Angeles Sentinel// reporter, Brad Pye, claimed to have witnessed Lorick's signing of a Raiders contract a week ago and that Lorick had accepted a cash bonus from the team's representative.
-•	Lorick claimed he hadn't signed with Oakland, but Pye produced a document, not the contract, signed by Lorick acknowledging that he had signed the contract.
-•	The contract itself was now missing.
