His best season came in 1978, when he registered 133 unassisted tackles, the third-best single-season performance in Packers history.

Four of those picks came in one game against the San Diego Chargers, tying an NFL record. Buchanon was an All-Pro choice in 1978 and was inducted into the Packers Hall of Fame in 1993.
