Derrick Brooks, LOLB - Buccaneers
Selected to the Hall of Fame in 2014, linebacker Derrick Brooks was drafted 28th overall by the Buccaneers in the 1995 NFL Draft. He spent his entire 14-year career with the Bucs, recording 11 Pro Bowl selections, 9-time All-Pro, and won a championship ring in Super Bowl XXXVII.
In 2002, Brooks was selected as the winner of the AP Defensive Player of the Year award. He finished the season with 87 solo tackles, 30 assisted tackles, one sack, one forced fumble, one fumble recovery, 11 passes defensed, and 5 interceptions -- 3 of which he returned for touchdowns.
Emmitt Smith, HB - Cowboys
Out of the University of Florida, Hall of Fame running back Emmitt Smith was drafted 17th overall in the 1990 NFL Draft by the Dallas Cowboys. He went on to finish his first season with 937 rush yards and 11 touchdowns and won the AP Offensive Rookie of the Year Award. He's since been selected to 8 Pro Bowls, 4 First-team All-Pro teams, was the NFL leading rusher 4 times, Super Bowl MVP (XXVIII) and won three Super Bowls with the Cowboys.
Smith is the only running back to ever win a Super Bowl championship, the NFL Most Valuable Player award, the NFL rushing crown, and the Super Bowl Most Valuable Player award all in the same season. In the 1995-96 season, he helped lead the Cowboys to their fifth Super Bowl after leading the league in rush yards for the fourth time in 5 years, and in 2002 beat Walter Payton's career rush yards record with 18,35... a record he still holds today.
