Tampa Bay Buccaneers: DT Warren Sapp

Bald, Brash, Boastful, and Beastly. No. 99 out of the University of Miami was just a menace. He was the ultimate 3-tech defensive tackle that could trample the run on his way to the quarterback. But while his on-the-field play was impeccable, Sapp was a different person in other areas. Packers coach Mike Sherman and his spat with Sapp is well documented, though Sapp did feel remorse for Chad Clifton after said hit.

When Sapp arrived in Tampa, the franchise was known for losing, but he and fellow draft pick Derrick Brooks, along with former Bucs safety turned NFL general manager John Lynch, made that unit a terror, and with Sapp at the heart of it all, they pounded the opposition en route to their peak in Super Bowl XXXVII, a 48-21 win over the Raiders.
