Guard
No. 65
Dayton
"Ellison was the Giants' No. 11 pick in 1971, but opted for the Canadian Football League that season and played with Toronto. He became a free agent and the Giants signed him for 1972. Mark proved to be a tough and steady performer as a reserve guard and a good hitter and blocker on the special teams. He is extremely adept at pulling to lead the sweeps and has fine potential.
Mark was captain at Dayton in his senior year and doubled as both an offensive guard and as a fullback on occasions. His work at fullback was usually as a blocker, but he won conference honors as an offensive lineman.
Ellison was born in Pittsburgh, was a standout performer at Westinghouse High School in his home city, and still resides in Pittsburgh during the off-seasons."
