A Sixth Round Pick from Howard in 2006, Bethea helped Indianapolis win the Super Bowl as a rookie as a starter.

Bethea went on to play for the San Francisco 49ers for…
Aqib Talib was the 20thOverall Pick in 2008, but the former Kansas Jayhawk struggled early to live up to expectations.

A Second Team All-Sun Belt Selection from Troy at Safety, Brynden Trawick played Safety at college but was a backup in that capacity in the NFL.

Despite playing for a college juggernaut like Penn State, Linebacker Cameron Wake was not drafted in 2005.

Wake made the…
C.J. Anderson had a tough road to make the NFL. Undrafted out of California, the Denver Broncos signed the Running Back, but he tore his MCL in training camp.

Darren Sproles was nicknamed “The Lightning Bug” and it was an absolute joy to watch the 5’ 6” Running Back frustrate opposing tacklers on a weekly basis.
Over a 12-year career, Cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie had flashes of brilliance where he was twice named to the Pro Bowl. A First Rounder from Tennessee State, DRC’s first stop was the Arizona Cardinals, where he was an All-Rookie in 2008 and Pro Bowler in 2009. After a decent 2010 season, Rodgers-Cromartie was traded to Philadelphia, though a move to the nickel…

He moved on to Oakland in 2014 and had…
Drafted in 2004 with the third overall pick by the San Diego Chargers, Eli Manning did not want to play for the Bolts, and he was quickly dealt to the New York Giants, where he would play his entire career.

A two-time Mountain West Conference Defensive Player of the Year at Utah, Eric Weddle was drafted in the Second Round in 2007 by the San Diego Chargers.
