22. Devin Hester
Regarded as the greatest return man in NFL history, Hester had quite the rookie year. Analysts initially criticized the Bears’ decision to draft him as they believed that they should have focused on their offense instead. However, Hester answered all of his critics and then some.

Hester led the league in returns, return yardage, and return touchdowns. He then sealed legend status with a 92-yard kickoff return to lead off Super Bowl XLI against the Indianapolis Colts. This was the first touchdown return of an opening kickoff in Super Bowl history as well as the quickest touchdown.
