Warren Moon

Despite being the MVP of the Rose Bown in 1978, Warren Moon went totally undrafted by the NFL. Instead, Moon played for the Edmonton Eskimoes of the Canadian Football League for six seasons, winning the Grey Cup five times, Grey Cup MVP honors twice, and being a CFL Hall of Fame inductee.

    • But it wasn’t until 1984 that Moon finally got his shot in the NFL when the Houston Oilers came calling. Though his numbers in his “rookie” season were pretty decent – more than 3,330 passing yards, 12 touchdowns, 14 interceptions, and a 57.6 completion rate – he led the team to a 3-13 record.

    Though his Oilers teams never had a tremendous amount of success – he went just 3-6 in the postseason with Houston – he became one of the NFL’s all time most prolific passers. He finished his career with just under 50,000 passing yards with a 58.4 percent completion rate. He also threw for 291 touchdowns and added another 22 on the ground.

    Moon finished his NFL career with nine trips to the Pro Bowl, the AP Offensive Player of the Year in 1990, was twice the NFL passing yards leader, and earned his induction into the NFL Hall of Fame in 2006.

    Not bad for a guy who wasn’t even drafted.
