Mike Vick if he doesn’t get drafted by a shitty team.
One of the most overrated athletes of all time, in any sport.
Couldn't be counted on to start all 16 games in a season, horrific 4th Q comeback/game winning drive %, 2-3 playoff record in ~12 seasons with mostly shitty play (Lamar is trying to beat Vick on this point), fumbled almost as many times as he has passed for a TD, I could go on and on...
Fantastic athlete, below-average QB and a better team isn't salvaging his 55% career completion rate.

Lawrence Phillips. What would he have been had he not have had such a terrible childhood? I remember Ray Lewis saying he was the hardest person he had to tackle.

Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf: if his health and politics did not determine his NBA future, I could have seen him being in the pro basketball Hall of Fame.
Had Tourette's, and they had to up the dosage to control it, and it changed him.
If he had been 'normal', and had progressed in a linear way from his time at LSU-
CJ was better than either Allen Iverson or Steph Curry, when he was at his prime. Unstoppable when he got on a roll. He would have won a number of titles, given how obsessed the NBA is now with 3 pt shots.
And at LSU, he was your basic nice, clean guy, very likeable. He probably would have been a marketing goldmine.
