Donte Stallworth, Sacramento, California --- Yep! Davis wouldn't allow California. "Too northern in flavor," he said. "Sure, San Diego is southerly, but it isn't the South!"
It turned out to be a decent trade, for us though. Stallworth was injured in Giants' training camp and never returned to form. Though he played for many more seasons, he never exceeded 800 yards receiving.
Thanks for asking! I was hoping I wasn't writing just for my own amusement.
