John Randle DT Minnesota Vikings. NFL teams thought Randle was too small at 6-foot-1 and 241 pounds. He went undrafted, then failed a tryout with Tampa Bay before signing with Minnesota in 1990, where he became one of the best defensive linemen in NFL history. In his second season, Randle had 58 tackles and 9.5 sacks. He had a streak of six straight Pro Bowls (1993-98) before earning honors again in 2001 with Seattle. He finished his career with 137.5 sacks, tied for ninth all time. On February 6, 2010, he was voted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. (AP Photo/Mark Duncan)
