Ron Dayne
This 1999 Heisman Trophy winner holds the record for rushing yards in the NCAA Division I FBS history. The New York Giants swooped in on him at the 11th pick at the 2000 NFL Draft. He and Tiki Barber teamed up in the backfield. The two became known as “Thunder and Lightning,” which is a nod to his strength and Barber’s speed. Sadly, his carries gradually diminished within the next few seasons.
Chris Weinke
In 2000, this Florida State QB won the Heisman Trophy. The following year, Chris Weinke went on to be the starter for the Panthers. Sadly, it was a rather forgettable season. Carolina had a terrible 1-15 record that season. After this, he was made the backup to Jake Delhomme. He stayed in the bleachers for years and only got to make a start when Delhomme was injured in 2006. He had brief stints in Cleveland and San Francisco but started coaching instead. In the past, he has worked with Alabama and Tennessee.
