Players That Teams Shouldn't Have Passed Up In The Draft: NFL Edition

As a fan, have you ever expressed regret over not picking a particular player in the draft? Sometimes, there are athletes that teams will pass up, not realizing that said athlete will become a superstar one day. It's not the team's fault; you can't see into the future to find out if that athlete's a bust or a star. But there will always be that lingering regret fans will have about their teams missing the boat on a particular star. I might've passed up some players on this list, but there wasn't enough room to fit them all in. Here's a list of some athletes that teams shouldn't have passed up:

• Tom Brady: 6th round, pick #199: The obvious start to the list, Brady has had a multitude of accomplishments in his career. On the cusp of becoming a six-time Super Bowl champion, Brady has four Super Bowl MVPs, 13 First-team All-Pros, two NFL MVPs, and other achievements to his name. Brady has never had a losing season at quarterback on top of that. Talk about the Patriots scoring big.
• Aaron Rodgers: 1st round, pick #24: Yes, Rodgers was a first-round pick in the 2005 draft. However, there were a plethora of teams needing a quarterback who could've taken Rodgers earlier in the round that didn't. The Packers wound up getting him and ended up winning a Super Bowl with the two-time NFL MVP under center.
• Steve Smith: 3rd round, pick #74: Seen as an undersized receiver out of Utah, Smith was passed up by everyone in the 2001 NFL Draft before eventually going to Carolina. He ended up going to five Pro Bowls and was a two-time First-team All-Pro as well as being named the NFL Comeback Player of the year in 2005. In 2001, Smith was also the first rookie to make the Pro Bowl as a special teams player since Tyrone Hughes in 1993.
• Randy Moss: 1st round, pick #21: Many teams during the 1998 NFL Draft saw Randy Moss as a potential troublemaker due to his legal issues, thus passing him up despite having needs at wide receiver. The Vikings wound up picking Moss, who wound up being the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year in 1998. He led the NFL in receiving touchdowns five separate times, made six Pro Bowls, and was a four-time First-team All-Pro.
• Michael Strahan: 2nd round, pick #40: Strahan wasn't much of a thought during the early rounds of the 1993 NFL Draft before the Giants picked him up in the second round. Strahan went on to win a Super Bowl, make seven Pro Bowls, lead the NFL in sacks twice, be named the NFL Defensive Player of the Year in 2001, and be a four-time First-Team All-Pro.
