#11 - Drew Bledsoe Drew Bledsoe was the number one overall pick in 1993 out of Washington State. He played for the Patriots from 1993-2001, losing the job to some kid named Brady. Bledsoe led the league in many categories in 1994, but it was still not a season to brag about. He led the league in attempts, completions, interceptions, and yards per game. His best season came in 1997 when he threw 28 touchdowns to 15 interceptions. Bledsoe never actually lived up to the expectations of the first overall pick. He was a decent quarterback but nothing great. However, we all love him for getting rocked by Jets' defender Mo Lewis in 2001 and making way for the best quarterback in the history of the NFL. Bledsoe did come into the AFC Championship game against the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2001, throwing a touchdown pass (although Brady put him in great position to do so). Bledsoe retired in 2006 after spending time in Buffalo and Dallas. Follow @SamPericolo for the latest on sam-pericolo.weebly.com
