As electric running the football as he was passing it, the first overall pick in the 2001 NFL Draft was born in Newport News, Virginia, and attended Homer L. Ferguson High School in the same city.

One of the most exciting players in NFL history, Vick's infamous dogfighting scandal cost him his reputation, legacy, and many, many numbers.

In his shortened career — he spent 21 months in federal prison — the mobile quarterback was a four-time Pro Bowler, and he holds NFL records for career average yards per carry (7.0), career rushing yards by a quarterback (6,109), and rushing yards by a quarterback in a season (1,039).

Vick also was selected by the Rockies in the 2000 MLB Draft, despite not having played baseball since the eighth grade.

HONORABLE MENTION: Allen Iverson, Lawrence Taylor
