Undrafted in over 90% of leagues, ESPN calculates he was on winning teams at a rate of 64% making it the largest gain ever for one player...

He makes as good a case as anyone, but there have been a couple game changers throughout the years.

There is no definitive answer to this.

3 out of 4 of my leagues champions had him.

And he won me a title.

It's a very good question, considering that he had 3 huge weeks in most playoff formats (weeks 14-16). Mike Vick's 2010 season also comes to mind.

What about Kurt Warner in '99? I would think he was on many a waiver wire at the beginning of the season.

False. Foster if you had an early draft a few years ago.

Mike Vick in 2010 was pretty insane

ETA: 3,018 passing, 21 TD, 6 INTs, 676 rushing, 9 TD, 3 lost fumbles. That's like 295 points in standard scoring in only 12 games. Not to mention scoring 50 in a week 10 game

Drafted him, dropped him and then picked him up as a FA after Cruz went down.

How does that amaze you? He was expected to miss the first month of the season and be a secondary receiver for a QB who just led the league in interceptions.

I picked him up just for kicks right before his first start. Without him, there's no way I win the title.
