When it comes to tight route running, breakaway speed, and a soft pair of hands that attract footballs like glue, look no further than NFL great, Randy Moss to satisfy all of your wide receiver needs. Moss nearly had a flawless NFL career despite not winning any rings. Randy Moss played his collegiate football in his home state of West Virginia at Marshall University where he earned two All-American nods. While he made an impression on NFL scouts, Moss fell to the 21st overall pick in the 1998 NFL Draft, selected by the Minnesota Vikings. We're sure those teams that passed on Moss are still kicking themselves to this very day.
Moss played his most prominent years as a receiver for the Minnesota Vikings before finding his way to the Oakland Raiders where he struggled with the front office. Moss would go on to sign with the New England Patriots in 2007 where he would go on to claim the single-season touchdown receptions record with a total of 23. Moss also holds the record for touchdowns scored by a rookie wide receiver with 17. Moss would make his way back to Minnesota and play for the Tennessee Titans and San FRancisco 49ers before retiring in 2013. The Hall of Fame wide out currently is a color commentator ESPN's Sunday NFL Countdown and Monday Night Countdown.
