Michael Griffin

Michael Griffin played in the NFL for ten years, the first nine of which were with the Tennessee Titans.  A two-time Pro Bowl recipient, Griffins’ best season was in 2008 where he had 7 Interceptions with 172 Interception Return Yards.  Griffin would have 25 picks over his career.

Mario Williams

Mario Williams was the first overall Draft Pick of the 2006 Draft (many thought the Houston Texans were going to select Reggie Bush instead) and while he may not have met overall expectations the Defensive End had a good career.  While he was with Houston, Williams was named a Second Team All Pro in 2007and he finished third in Quarterback Sacks with 14.  He would be named to the Pro Bowl in both 2008 & 2009 and in the five seasons that he was a Texan he would get to QB 53 times.

Marc Mariani

With all due respect to Marc Mariani, we only have him here because we will place any former Pro Bowl recipient with five years of NFL service, which means we will look at his career, even though we know he should not warrant any consideration for the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Jon Dorenbos

Undrafted in 2003 out of the University of Texas-El Paso Jon Dorenbos would have a long career as a Long Snapper where he played in 201 Games over a career with the Buffalo Bills, Tennessee Titans and Philadelphia Eagles.  With Philadelphia he made two Pro Bowls (2009 & 2014) and was given a honorary Super Bowl Ring when the team won Super Bowl LII as he was traded to the New Orleans Saints but returned when he failed a physical and was forced to retire due to the discovery of an aortic aneurysm.  He also had a successful career as a magician.
