Joey Porter
Joey Porter was drafted in the third round of the 1999 NFL Draft, 73rd overall by the Pittsburgh Steelers. Playing the linebacker position, he spent a significant portion of his career with the Steelers but also played for the Miami Dolphins and Arizona Cardinals before retiring.
Porter was a four-time Pro Bowler, a First-Team All-Pro selection in 2002, and a key member of the Steelers team that won Super Bowl XL. He ended his career with 98 sacks, 25 forced fumbles, and 12 interceptions.

Chase Edmonds
Chase Edmonds was selected in the fourth round of the 2018 NFL Draft, 134th overall, by the Arizona Cardinals. Edmonds was utilized as both a primary running back and a complement to other backs in the Cardinals’ system.
His stats have seen a gradual increase, and he has proven to be a valuable asset, especially in PPR (Points Per Reception) fantasy football leagues, thanks to his receiving skills.
After 4 years in Arizona, Edmonds split time in 2022 with the Broncos and the Dolphins, but injuries hampered his overall production for the year.

Ted Ginn Jr
Ted Ginn Jr. was selected ninth overall by the Miami Dolphins in the 2007 NFL Draft. Over the course of his NFL career, Ginn played for multiple teams, including the Dolphins, San Francisco 49ers, Carolina Panthers, Arizona Cardinals, New Orleans Saints, and the Chicago Bears.
Ginn was primarily known for his speed and agility, making him a threat as both a wide receiver and return specialist. He has accumulated over 5,000 receiving yards and more than 30 receiving touchdowns. As a return specialist, he returned four punts and three kickoffs for touchdowns.
His unique ability to change a game with a long play—either as a receiver or a returner—made him a valuable asset on any team he joined. Over the years, Ginn was involved in several playoff runs, including a trip to the Super Bowl with the Carolina Panthers.
Josh Rosen
Josh Rosen was selected by the Arizona Cardinals as the 10th overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft. He played for the Cardinals during his rookie season before being traded to the Miami Dolphins in 2019.
Rosen’s career in the NFL has been marked by a series of ups and downs. In his rookie season with the Cardinals, he started 13 games, throwing for 2,278 yards with 11 touchdowns and 14 interceptions. However, his time as a starter was short-lived, and he has since primarily served in a backup role.
Though his career has not yet lived up to the expectations that come with being a first-round draft pick, Rosen continues to be a part of the NFL landscape, seeking opportunities to prove himself as a capable quarterback.
Jay Feely
Jay Feely had an impressive 14-year career as a placekicker in the NFL. He initially signed with the Atlanta Falcons as an undrafted free agent in 2001 but truly started his NFL journey with the New York Giants in 2005.
Feely spent two seasons with the Giants before moving to the Miami Dolphins, where he played for a season. His career then took him to the New York Jets, where he enjoyed two solid seasons, followed by short stints with the Arizona Cardinals and the Chicago Bears.
Throughout his career, Feely demonstrated consistency as a kicker, converting 82.6% of his field goals and a strong leg as well, with a career long field goal of 61 yards
Vonnie Holliday
Vonnie Holliday was selected in the 1st round, 19th overall, by the Green Bay Packers in the 1998 NFL Draft. The defensive end made an immediate impact, earning All-Rookie honors.
Holliday had a 15-year career in the NFL, playing for multiple teams including the Packers, Kansas City Chiefs, Miami Dolphins, Denver Broncos, Washington Football Team, and the Arizona Cardinals.
Known for his pass-rushing skills, Holliday accumulated 62.5 sacks, 599 tackles, and 9 forced fumbles over his career. He also had a knack for making plays in crucial situations, often coming up with big sacks or tackles for a loss.
