Obviously Baseball and Hockey drafts are more crap shoots than Football & Basketball, but it is amazing how many teams passed over future stars.

Here's a few:
Mike Piazza - 62nd round
Keith Hernandez - 42nd round
Joe Montana - 3rd Round
Dan Marino - 1st round, but 27th pick.

Not sure of the exact number:

Warren Sapp


Someone told me once that there's a right and wrong, and that punishment would come to those who dare to cross the line.
But it must not be true for jerk-offs like you.

Roger Staubach - I dont remember exactly, but I think he went in the 12th round.


I believe in the Faith... that can save me.
I believe in the hope and I pray...
That someday it may raise me... above these badlands

Drafted: 10th round (129th overall) by Dallas Cowboys in 1964. Drafted as a future selection. Also drafted in 16th round (122nd overall) of 1964 AFL draft by the Kansas City Chiefs.

No I'm not Mel Kiper, Jr. and knew that off the top of my head.

He was the last of that years famous quarter back class taken. The reason for this was that he got caught smoking pot. Can you fucking imagine that? Now, you can shoot the mother of your unborn child and still............oh wait, that is where the line is drawn. Anyway, Hall of famers like Todd Blackledge and Ken O'Brian where taken infront of him because of pot. Ponderous, fucking ponderous.

I shucked it, and I shucked it, and I shucked it, i'm quite the mother shucker!

Warren Sapp was drafted like the #11 Overall Pick, thats not exactly late in the draft.

True, but b/c of his weed smoking he was passed up by teams who were afraid of his conduct. I'm sure any of those teams would take him now.

As Delta mentioned, it was a future pick; remember he still had Navy service first.

Joe Klecko - 6th round pick in 1977

The Title of the thread is Stars picked late in drafts, not Stars who got passed over for personal problems.
