Shannon Sharpe was a late round draft pick in 1990, and the product of Savannah State would become the most prolific Tight End of the 1990s. In his third season in the NFL, he would be named to the Pro Bowl where he would begin a seven-year streak. Sharpe would become one of John Elway's most dependable weapons and he would three times secure the 1,000 Yard mark in Receiving Yards. He was also a four-time First Team All-Pro (1993 & 1996-98) and was one of the main reasons that the Broncos would win their first two Super Bowls.
Tackles were not kept track of when Randy Gradishar played in the NFL but if they were Gradishar would be statistically proven as one of the most magnificent tackling machines in the history of Professional Football.
John Elway was the most highly touted Quarterback of the 1983 Draft, but he made it very clear from the start that he did not want to play for the Baltimore Colts who had the number one overall pick. He would be traded to the Denver Broncos, and while he had some growing pains the way most young Quarterbacks do, he blossomed into one of the greatest dual-threat Running Backs in NFL history.
This entry is exceptionally tricky as Jimmy Butler only played 69 Games for the Timberwolves, and he forced a trade to get out. That being said, the Shooting Guard put forth high numbers with a 22.0 Point per Game Average and a 23.5 PER, which are excellent statistics for his tenure there.
