Pulled out the 1974 set & the guide. Other cards beside #49 Windsor have thee versions:
126 Tom Mack has the Topps issue (All Pro banner), vertical pose with one * and vertical pose with **.
124 Forrest Blue All Pro banner, vertical pose with one * with "1972 Season" and vertical pose with "1973 Season" and two **
116 Charlie Johnson horizontal (Topps), vertical pose with one * with "1972 Season" and vertical pose with "1973 Season" and two **
49 Bob Windosr horizontal (Topps), vertical pose with one * with "1972 Season" and vertical pose with "1973 Season" and two **
 
OK, here's the info - from an an SCD football guide:
 
Quoing from the SCD:
These 50 cards were included inside a Parker Brothers game called Pro Draft. The cards, featuring only offensive players were produced by Topps and use the identical design as the 1974 Topp set. However, some differences can be noted on certain cards. Some of the game cards have 1972 statistics on the card backs, and others have different player poses on the front (#'s 23, 49, 116, 124, 126 & 127). Players with an * have 1972 statistics (note - this is wrong. Cards with "1972 Season" have 2 asterisks. Offensive line players who don't have stats either have * (Topps) or ** (PB) Therefore all numbers below - the PB cards - have two asterisks except for the possible additional variations listed at the top of the e-mail). Card numbers in this set are identical to the card numbers the players have in the regular 1974 Topps set."
