Jerry Rice, WR - 49ers
Widely considered to be arguably the best wide receiver to ever play football, Jerry Rice was drafted 16th overall by the 49ers in 1985. His resume is one of the most impressive in NFL history -- He was selected to 13 Pro Bowls, named AP Offensive Player of the Year twice, and won three Super Bowls with the 49ers including Super Bowl XXIII where he was named MVP.
Jerry holds the career records for most receptions (1,549), touchdown receptions (197), receiving yards (22,895), and most 1,000-yard seasons by a receiver (14) among many others. In 1995, he helped lead the 49ers to their fifth franchise Super Bowl victory over the Chargers with 10 receptions for 149 yards and 3 touchdowns.
JJ Watt, DE - Texans
After skipping his senior year at Wisconsin and topping every NFL Combine category in 2011, JJ Watt was drafted 11th overall by the Houston Texans. He's been selected to four Pro Bowls, named first team All-Pro four times, and was named AP Defensive Player of the Year three times in his 5-year career.
In 2012, Watt had one of the best defensive performances in NFL history. He finished the season with 69 solo tackles, 12 assisted tackles, 20.5 sacks, 16 passes defensed, four forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries.
