Twenty years ago, the Eagles signed cornerback Troy Vincent away from the Miami Dolphins. I didn't know a whole lot about Vincent. Since I was an Eagles fan, I focused on the NFC. I would see Vincent's name in The Sporting News and Pro Football Weekly, but I hadn't really watched him play much. He was listed as a top free agent that year so I was stoked when the Eagles stole him away from Miami.
I didn't have to watch Vincent long to see what all the hype was about. He was a terrific cornerback.
