gold star for USAHOF

190. Nate Newton

Nate Newton was so big, that he was called the “Kitchen," in reference to that he was a more massive player than William "The Refrigerator" Perry.  Newton went undrafted from Florida A&M but found a home in the USFL, where he played two years with the Tampa Bay Bandits and would be named to the All-USFL Team.

60. Todd Christensen

Considering that Todd Christensen was drafted as a Running Back, it is impressive that he developed into one of the most successful Tight Ends of the 1980s.

129. Jay Novacek

The Cardinals franchise may have a long and storied history of great players.  Jay Novacek may have played five seasons there, but it was not until he hit “Big D” did he become a star and was used to the best of his ability.
