    13 year UDFA rookie streak

    Could anyone give me the list of names of the players that make up this streak or lead me to a place that has it? Thanks

    Tucker takes the cake on that list. But this leads to another question.... Who is the best UDFA off all time?

    Since the dissolution of the AAFC in 1949, eleven Pro Football Hall of Famers went undrafted. In addition to Randle, Moon, Lane and Warner... you have Jack Butler, Willie Wood, Mick Tinglehoff, Willie Brown, Emmitt Thomas, Larry Little, and Jim Langer.

    My vote:

    1. Night Train Lane
    2. John Randle
    3. Warren Moon
    4. Larry Little
    5. Adam Vin.... Willie Wood

    Hall of Fame DE John Randle and Warren Moon are a tie in my mind. Slight edge to Randle because Moon would have been drafted if he agreed to switch positions. Teams wanted him but he told them flat out that he was a QB

    I'd flip Night Train and Randle. But of course I never saw Night Train play, while John Randle was just terrifying.

    Yeah of course I never saw him play live either. But based on stats, accounts and old footage, Night Train is closer to the #1 CB all time than Randle is the #1 DT all time. But not by much.

    If I go strictly by players I saw, yeah it's John Randle. He is the best DT I ever saw play prior to Aaron Donald. Better than Warren Sapp and Cortez Kennedy. I am too young for Joe Greene and that's also counting Reggie White as a DE.

    Randle should'a been first ballot.

    I remember really liking Josh Bynes but he never quite got over the hump to being a regular.

    Arizona just picked him last week
