47. Darnay Scott

Darnay Scott was the second San Diego Aztec Wide Receiver to record multiple 1,000 Yard years, and the NFL took notice as the Cincinnati Bengals used their Second Round (30thOverall) Pick to grab him.

Scott never reached Pro Bowl status in the NFL, but his production was very consistent.  An All-Rookie in 1994, Scott had 866 Yards with five TDs, and he would have at least that in the next three seasons, except for 1997, where he was three Yards shy of that mark.  In 1999, he had his first and only 1,000 Yard year (1,022) but missed all of 2000 due to injury.  He returned in 2001 with 819 Yards, which would be his last season in a Bengals uniform, as he signed with Jacksonville afterward. 

Scott had 5,975 Yards and 35 Touchdowns with Cincinnati, a more than respectable total.
