Bronko Nagurski Trophy winners the last 12 years

RedThat · 07-10-2005, 11:52 AM

1993 Rob Waldorf, DL University of Arizona
1994 Warren Sapp, DL University of Miami
1995 Pat Fitzgerald, LB Northwestern University
1996 Pat Fitzgerald, LB Northwestern University
1997 Charles Woodson, DB University of Michigan
1998 Champ Bailey, DB University of Georgia
1999 Corey Moore, LB Virginia Tech University
2000 Dan Morgan, LB University of Miami
2001 Roy Williams, DB University of Oklahoma
2002 Terrell Suggs, LB Arizona State University
2003 Derrick Strait, DB University of Oklahoma
2004 Derrick Johnson, LB University of Texas

*Not bad company there. As for Mr.Johnson, we still have to wait and see. But, if you go back to 2003, 3 players out of the last 4 years are studs. Lets suppose 2004 is exempt. And, we were to count the last 11 years, 6 players of those last 11 years are studs. Can Johnson be a stud? I hope so. If we were to go by these statistical ratios, are chances with him are pretty good!

He was never drafted and is now the LB coach for Northwestern.

Wow. A back-to-back Bronco Nagurski award winner that goes undrafted? Did he get injured?

And welcome to the Planet, by the way.......

After some extensive searching, it appears that Pat Fitzgerald went undrafted despite his accolades, and then didn't make it past training camp with the Cowboys. It's reported at the following link. (Search for "Fitzgerald" to see both bits of news.)

He broke his leg after his junior year. After not getting drafted, he signed with Dallas and got cut in the preseason.
