Guest peele Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 The Rock was Warren Sapp's backup at Miami. I thought the Rock played TE or something. I am not sure though. I don't think he was as big when he was in college so I don't think he would have been a good fit for the D-Line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gshaffer88 Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 There's a guy in TNA named Monte Brown who was a linebacker for the Patriots and the Bills. They always boast that he played in two Super Bowls (the one where the Pats lost to GB and one of the Bills losses) I think he was mainly a special teams player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tastes Like Chicken Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 Brock Lesnar walked away from a multi-million dollar guaranteed deal with the WWE to try out for the Vikings. He was cut before ever playing a regular season game. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mammy487 Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 I think we should sign the BIG guy that likes to play ping pong on the latest version of "The Longest Yard". Hes a monster of a man! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bucaro Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 I thought the Rock played TE or something. I am not sure though. I don't think he was as big when he was in college so I don't think he would have been a good fit for the D-Line. He played d-tackle and played quite a bit, he was #94 but ruptured two disks in his back during his playing days. Played in Calgary for the CFL for less than a year too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
