LaRon Landry

Drafted sixth overall in 2007, LaRon Landry won a starting Defensive Back role immediately with the Washington Redskins.  Landry did not have a career where he recorded a lot of Interceptions, but he was league known for his hard hitting.  After five seasons with Washington in 2012 Landry would sign with the New York Jets and would go to his first and only Pro Bowl.

Anthony Spencer

A First Round pick from Purdue, Anthony Spencer would work his way to the starting position at Outside Linebacker in his third year in the NFL.  Spencer was a Pro Bowl Selection in 2012 and he recorded 11 Quarterback Sacks that year.

13. Dolf Luque

Dolf Luque was one of the few Cubans allowed to play in the Majors in the early 20th century which was likely due to his fair complexion and blue eyes.  The Cincinnati Reds were the beneficiary of this, as he would develop into quite a Pitcher playing under the Reds umbrella.
A major star of the Cincinnati Reds staff in the late 1930s, Paul Derringer would win 161 Games for the team.  Derringer would be named to six All-Star Games (including five straight from 1938 to 1942) and would have four 20 Win seasons and was known for rarely walking batters in his prime.  Notably, he would have two straight top-five appearances in MVP voting (1939 & 1940).
