Ha-Ha Clinton Dix

Chris Johnson honestly. His first and second year with Tennessee was unlike anything I’ve ever seen before. It felt like every touch had the potential to be a touchdown. But he held out after his second year and dropped off after he got paid. Not saying he checked out, the offensive line he had in 2009 was the best in the league. He also had an insane workload. But he never came close to matching his stats from that brief time.

If this question was asked prior to yesterday. I would have said Martavius Bryant.The tandem of him and AB with Le'Veon, Heath and Big Ben along with the Steelers defense, they would've had another SB run.

Not big, but I often wonder about Dorial Green-Beckham

Vic Beasley. Lead the league in sacks, then gets hurt the next year and relegated to the XFL like 2 years after that.

I was legitimately wondering what Josh Gordon was up to these days, earlier in the season.

Michael Clayton on the Bucs. Went from 1200 yards and 7 TDs as a rookie to constantly getting hurt and never getting remotely close to those numbers again.

Braylon Edwards went for 80-1300-16 in ‘07, punched one of LeBron James’ close friends, then was never heard from again

Muscle hamster. I don’t even remember his real name.

Jonah Gray. Ran for 200 yards one game and then BB cut before the next game because he was late to a meeting.

Barkevious Mingo. The Justice League finally caught up to him and put him back in his cell on some asteroid orbiting Procyon A.

I feel like Geno Smith would have been a great answer to this question prior to last year. I honestly thought he was out of the league for at least 3-4 years before the camp battle was announced.

Jordan Howard had a good few seasons then injuries slowed him down

I was convinced Napoleon Kaufman was the fastest person alive and then he became a priest.

Did anyone know where the Steelers Barry Foster went? How about Bam Morris?
