George Springer had a nice rookie season in 2014 with 20 Home Runs and it didn’t take long for him to become one of the Astros’ top players. 

Vontae Davis was a late 1^st Round Pick from the University of Illinois where as a Miami Dolphin he would be named to the All-Rookie Team.  He did well in his three years in Miami and would do better in Indianapolis where he was a two time Pro Bowl Selection (2014 & 2015) and was in that second tier of Corners.

From Eastern Michigan and the underappreciated Mid American Conference, T.J. Lang continued to play professionally in his region of sorts when he was drafted by the Green Bay Packers in 2009 and played a minimal role as a reserve that would win Super Bowl XLV.  Lang would become a starter bouncing between Left Guard and Right Tackle over the next two seasons until he was moved to Right Guard for good in 2013.  Lang was a Pro Bowl Selection in 2016 in his last year in Green Bay and he would sign with his home state Detroit Lions and would be a Pro Bowler for the second straight year.  He retired after the 2018 Season.

Ryan Kalil spent the first 12 seasons in the National Football League with the Carolina Panthers where he established himself as one of the best Offensive Lineman in franchise history.  The former USC Trojan was chosen for five Pro Bowls and was named to two First Team All Pro rosters.  While Kalil was well respected in Carolina and helped them win many games he wasn’t as well-known as he should have been.  After retiring in 2018, he came back immediately, perfroming one year with the New York Jets before retiring for good.
