Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Randle El, a college quarterback who became a receiver in the NFL, threw a touchdown pass to Hines Ward to clinch Pittsburgh's win over Seattle in the 2006 Super Bowl. He had two stints with the Steelers and also played four seasons in Washington. The emergence of Emmanuel Sanders and Antonio Brown likely made Randle El expendable.
