The 1987 NFL Draft is often forgotten in the grand scheme of things surrounding the machine that is the NFL today, in large part due to the fact that the class produced just two Hall of Famers and 35 Pro Bowlers in a class of 355 players and 12 rounds.
Of course, some Pro Bowlers from that class include former Pittsburgh Steelers standouts Hardy Nickerson, Greg Lloyd and Thomas Everett, along with big name guys across the league like Jessie Tuggle, Jerome Brown, Bo Jackson, Christian Okoye, Bruce Armstrong, Kevin Gogan and more.
However, arguably the best in the class didn’t even talk to the team that eventually drafted him that year, that being former Pittsburgh Steelers great and Pro Football Hall of Famer Rod Woodson, who came off the board at No.
