Le'Veon Bell

Le’Veon Bell was selected as the second running back in the 2013 draft when the Pittsburgh Steelers chose him with the 48th overall pick. Initially, he showed a lot of promise, with 1,259 yards from scrimmage in his rookie season. The following year, Bell's numbers exploded, as he rushed for 1,361 yards and added 854 receiving yards, accumulating a total of 2,215 yards from scrimmage. These numbers represent personal highs in Bell's time with the Steelers, and he finished as the runner-up in both yards from scrimmage and all-purpose yards. He also earned his first Pro Bowl and First Team All-Pro honors in 2014.

Injuries and a drug suspension held Bell to only six games in 2015. In 2016 and 2017, he finished third and second in yards from scrimmage and all-purpose yards, with APY numbers below 2,000. However, he was still a Pro Bowler in both years, and earned his second First Team All-Pro honors in 2017.

Before the 2018 season, the Steelers placed the franchise tag on Bell, but he refused to sign it. He sat out the entire season and became ineligible to play after the ninth week of the regular season. This was a significant risk, as it cost him millions and a year of his prime. In 2019, Bell signed with the New York Jets as a free agent, but it didn't work out well. He rushed for 789 yards and scored three touchdowns, which was a considerable drop-off from his time with the Steelers.

After five games and an injury in 2020, Bell was released by the Jets after seeking a trade. He then signed with the Kansas City Chiefs, but was used sparingly, and it was clear he just wasn't the same elusive rusher he used to be. In 2021, he split his final season between stops in Baltimore and Tampa, and his career ended without much fanfare.

Throughout his career, Bell compiled 6,554 rushing yards with 42 touchdowns, which is good, but lower than what was expected based on his Steelers peak.

Jared Cook

Jared Cook started his professional football career with the Tennessee Titans in 2009, after being selected as the third Tight End in the draft. He had a breakthrough season in his third year, recording 759 receiving yards, but his performance was inconsistent over the next decade.

Cook went on to play for five other teams, including the St. Louis Rams from 2013 to 2015, the Green Bay Packers in 2016, the Oakland Raiders in 2018 and 2019, the New Orleans Saints in 2019 and 2020, and finally, the Los Angeles Chargers in 2021. He was selected for the Pro Bowl two years in a row in 2018 and 2019. Throughout his career, he had six seasons with over 600 receiving yards, and his highest total of 896 yards came in 2018.

In total, Cook amassed 7,237 receiving yards and scored 45 touchdowns during his career.                              

Kyle Seager

Kyle Seager played for the Seattle Mariners for all eleven seasons of his career. Even though he wasn't considered a superstar, he was a dependable player during a crucial period for Seattle.

Seager debuted in 2011 and won the starting Third Base job the following season. He hit 20 Home Runs, beginning a streak of hitting at least 20 Home Runs in a season, which he still holds at the time of writing. In 2014, he had his best season in baseball, earning him the title of an All-Star and the Gold Glove award, while also leading the American League in Total Zone Runs. Seager is considered one of the best defensive Third Basemen in the league, having led all his peers in the AL three times in Assists and Double Plays.

Seager retired after the 2021 Season, which was his best year for power (35 HR, 101 RBI), although he batted a low .212. He left baseball with 1,395 Hits and 242 Home Runs.

Jack Doyle

Jack Doyle was not highly recruited when he finished high school. He received an offer from only Western Kentucky. After playing for four years with the Hilltoppers, he went undrafted. However, he was later signed by the Tennessee Titans. Unfortunately, he was cut during the training camp. The Indianapolis Colts claimed him, and he played for them for nine seasons.

Doyle started at the bottom of the depth chart but slowly worked his way up. He became a starter in 2016. In 2017, he had his best year ever, with 690 yards. He was named to the Pro Bowl that year and again in 2019. In total, he compiled 2,729 yards and 24 touchdowns. Doyle was not only valuable for his catching ability but also for his excellent blocking skills. He was an essential asset in Indianapolis’ running game.
