ACCOLADES:
CFL All-Star 1996
CFL All-Star 1997
CFL West All-Star 1999
NOTES:
I tried to get his autograph a few years ago but didn’t have any luck so when a cheap signing came along I went ahead and dropped these two cards in the mail. Drummond appears in Tecmo Superbowl as a member of the Philadelphia Eagles.
Jeff Query went to Milken college and represents the school’s only drafted NFL alumni, being selected in the 5th round of the 1989 draft by the Green Bay Packers.
Query set career records at the tiny school finishing with 2548 yards, 28 TD catches, 30.9 yards on kick off returns, and 10.9 on punt returns.
A track junkie, Query had breathtaking speed (4.3), and was a two-time CCIW 100-Meter Champion.
Immediately stepped in as the team’s #3 receiver and as the Packers’ primary return man.
Trademark blonde mullet brought all the girls to the yard.
After 1991 season, signed with the Houston Oilers via Plan B, but did not make the roster.
Picked up by Cincinnati and played the next 3 seasons with the team, and a final 2 games between the Bengals and the Redskins in 1995.
Best season came in 1993, catching 56 passes for 654 yards and 4 TDs.

NOTES:
I was very excited when Jeff joined the Oilers. It didn’t make much waves but I was convinced that he was going to be that missing part that was going to take the receiving corps to the next level. He then just disappeared in camp and I never heard from him until he was cut. I am not sure if he was an injury settlement, but I just remember being very disappointed.
Jeff had some great cards over the years and I was very happy to get these finally knocked out as they had been in ‘the box’ for a long time waiting for him to appear.
