Pass/Fail:

Added some cats.
"former American" change to "American former football" He didn't really play professionally... so that's probably the best way I guess.
- Changed.
"American Legion League" link to American Legion Baseball?
- Linked.
"his three years with the Fightin' Blue Hens" Shouldn't that say four years?
- Changed to "subsequent three years" (since the sentences was "He remained a starter for his three years with the Fightin' Blue Hens'" and he did not play as a freshman) – does that work?
"selected twice as a first-team All-Middle Atlantic Conference (MAC) " Add to infobox?
- Added.
"co-Middle Atlantic Conference Most Valuable Player" Change to MAC since it's already in parentheses earlier.
- Changed.
"He was chosen the Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC) Division II Player of the Year, co-Middle Atlantic Conference Most Valuable Player and first-team Little All-American by the Associated Press (AP), as well as a first-team All-ECAC player" All of that should go in the infobox too.
- Added.
"Delaware Athlete of the Year award" Who awarded that?
- Clarified.
"Slattery was selected in the 11th round (274th overall) of the 1967 NFL/AFL draft by the American Football League (AFL)'s New York Jets" change to "Slattery was selected by the New York Jets of the American Football League (AFL) in the 11th round, with the 274th overall pick, of the 1967 NFL/AFL draft
- Changed.
"training camp" Link Training camp (NFL).
- Linked.

All of that looks good now but the body doesn't say when he was first-team All-MAC. ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 22:19, 19 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@WikiOriginal-9: Added that it was as a junior and senior. BeanieFan11 (talk) 22:27, 19 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
