Guard
2nd Round
Southwest Missouri State
"Highly rated by pro scouts for his size, quickness and potential, Tom was a starter at left tackle for four years at Southwest Missouri State, winning All-Missouri Intercollegiate Athletic Association conference honors for three years, the past two campaigns as a unanimous selection. He was also named to the Associated Press All-American honorable mention list in 1972 and 1973. Mullen was elected a co-captain for the 1973 season and also won MVP team honors in a vote of his teammates; additionally, he was elected Outstanding Lineman by the Missouri Quarterback Club.
Tom was moved into the starting lineup as a freshman and improved yearly. He has fine versatility and can move into a guard position in the pro ranks easily. He has outstanding quickness with 4.7 speed and received consistently high grades in all of his blocking assignments.
Mullen was born in Kirkwood, Missouri, starred at Vianney High School in that town and still resides in Kirkwood."
