The reason Young chose the USFL was because he/his agent (Leigh Steinberg) didn't want to go to Cincy, who had the top pick of the 1984 draft acquired from the Bucs via the Jack Thompson trade. Young signed a proposterous $40 million, 43 year deal. Not sure how much of that he actually got.
The Bengals wound up trading the pick and came away with another lefty QB we all remember.
