Re: Redskins LB, Mel Kaufman passes away at age 50
Wow thats terrible. He was one of my favorite players on defense along w/ Monte Coleman and Dexter Manley.
It doesn't state what he died of. 50 yrs old is way too young to die. May he rest in peace |

Re: Redskins LB, Mel Kaufman passes away at age 50
One of the greats--and an undrafted FA at that.
RIP!

Re: Redskins LB, Mel Kaufman passes away at age 50
I tried searching around online for his cause of death. It's still unknown at this point, with an autopsy scheduled for tomorrow. Very sad. RIP Mel.

Re: Redskins LB, Mel Kaufman passes away at age 50
Very sad. I remember him as a "Donnie Warren" type player. Not flashy or obnoxious, just had a workman type attitude and a good guy in general. Ahh those were the days when Kaufman was playing. I miss those days and now I'll miss Mel Kaufman.
