Schramm said he can remember grumbling among the Cowboys' players when Dorsett was signed in .1977. "It's just a historic thing," Schramm said. "Tony came in as the Heisman Trophy winner out of Pittsburgh and got a big salary and some of the veterans started grumbling.

It happens every year with No. 1 draft choices. It's a fact of the game." Walker, 24, the 1982 Heisman Trophy winner, set a professional football rushing record for one season with 2,411 yards for the USFL New Jersey Generals in 1985.

The Dolphins' first game was a 30-16 loss to Minnesota that Dan Marino watched from the sidelines while Don Strock and Jim Jensen split the quarterbacking. "You have a tough time trying to find something good out of that game," said Miami coach Don Shula. But he acknowledged that on this occasion, winning isn't the only thing.

"What we want to accomplish in the preseason, especially in the first two games, is to find out about our young people, to give the veterans enough time to have them ready for the regular he said. With the rosters due to be reduced to 60 players next Tuesday, the Redskins and Steelers also are interested in working out some of their younger players. Pittsburgh has 88 players on its roster and Washington has 92. "We'll work our veterans first, then look at the younger guys because we've got some major decisions to make," said Washington coach Joe Gibbs, whose team lost to New England 18-7 last week. The Steelers, 30-13 losers to Chicago last week, will use the game as Cowboys' Tony Dorsett "Gone behind closed doors" because I'll be very unhappy I can be a very disruptive force," said Dorsett.
