How Many NFL Players Did You See Play High School Ball?

Featured Replies

I thought of this while reading a story on Cincy St X grad Luke Kuechly who I saw play against CCH. It got to thinking about how many players I saw that went on to play in the NFL.

 

Top of my head:

 

Kuechly St X

Kyle Rudolph Elder

Devier Posey LaSalle

Chandler Burden LaSalle

Shaun Alexander Boone

Mike Mitchell CCH/HHS

Eric Wood Elder

Mike Windt Elder

Mark Pike Dixie (destroyed me on a pass at the goal line)

 

 

I'm sure I'm forgetting some but that's a start.

All I can think of right now. I just included the HS/College/NFL team for those that aren't the most obvious names.

For purposes of this thread let's limit it to players that were on a regular-season NFL roster.

If you were to include the old KY-TN All Star game, there were several. In addition to those named:

 

Joseph Jefferson- Logan County / Colts

Tim Masthay- Murray / Packers

Earl Heyman- Ballard / Saints

Joe Tronzo- St. X/ Bengals

Bernard Jackson- St. X / Redskins

One of the names I do not see here is a Dunn (I think his name is Jason). He graduated from Hburg around '90 or '91 then played at EKU. I think he ended NFL career with KC Chiefs. "Its not barbecue unless its Dunn's barbecue"

Napoleon McCullem (sp?), Milford HS, Navy, Raiders.

 

Played against him in high school.

You may have seen Jake Mc Quaide from Elder too but forgot. Here is a statistical anomaly for all. There are 32 long snapper jobs in the NFL. Two of them (McQuaide and Windt) went to Elder. What are the odds that two long snappers in the NFL are from the same high school??

I had the pleasure of playing against the top four on that list. None of those contests went well, though.
