Top 10 Biggest NFL Draft Steals of the 2010s

Russell Wilson came out of Wisconsin and was selected in the 3rd round, 75th overall, in 2012 by the Seattle Seahawks. The highlight of his career so far is the 2013 Super Bowl season.

He's had a passer rating of 100 or more in five out of seven seasons, including two over 110. In 2015, he led the league with the highest passer rating and had a career-best 110.9 rating in 2018.

Originally projected to be undrafted due to a domestic violence arrest, the Chiefs selected Tyreek Hill in the 5th round with the 165th pick in 2016. Many fans were critical of this pick because of the domestic violence incident.

Hill became one of the most electrifying weapons on offense. He's been to four Pro Bowls, and 2018 was a career year with 87 receptions, 1,479 yards, a 17.0-yard average, and 12 touchdowns. Without a doubt, he would have likely matched or exceeded those numbers in 2019 had he not missed some time early in the season.

It's safe to say that Kansas City really got a gem here.

Say what you will about the Cowboys and Dak Prescott, but with Ezekiel Elliott and Amari Cooper, he has been solid for a 4th-round pick. Sure, he has had his ups and downs, but 2019 has been his best season yet, as he set multiple career highs, including completions, yards, attempts, and touchdowns.

Richard Sherman was selected by the Seattle Seahawks in the 5th round, 154th overall, in the 2011 draft. He became a key part of their Legion of Boom defense, which won Super Bowl 48.

He has been very productive on the field when healthy. The highlight so far is his 2012 season, where he had 64 tackles (53 solo) and eight interceptions.

Kelce was drafted in the 3rd round, 63rd overall, by the Kansas City Chiefs. The five-time Pro Bowl tight end started off roughly, but since 2015, he has posted four consecutive 1,000-yard seasons, becoming the first tight end to do so.

He's also had 80 or more receptions every year since 2016. He's truly one of the best tight ends in the league.

Kittle has had a short career so far, being selected in the 5th round, 146th overall, in 2017. Since then, he has been one of the best tight ends in the league.

He had a solid 2018 campaign and followed that up with another great season and a chance for a Super Bowl ring. The two-time Pro Bowl nominee and 2019 PFF Player of the Year has shown he's worth it.

Sure, you may argue that his career went downhill over the past year, but before this downward spiral, he was without a doubt one of the best receivers in the league, making seven Pro Bowls. He was drafted in the 6th round, 195th overall, by the Pittsburgh Steelers.

In nine years with Pittsburgh, he led the league in receptions in 2014 and 2015 and had the most yards in 2014 and 2017. He also led the league in touchdowns in 2018. His best season was 2015, with 136 receptions for over 1,800 yards and 10 touchdowns.

Houston was drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs in the 3rd round, 70th overall, in 2011. He had the potential to be a late first-round pick, but he failed a drug test, causing him to fall in the draft.

He had nine or more sacks in five of his eight seasons in Kansas City, though he did miss some time due to injury. Nevertheless, he has been very productive so far in his career.

Selected 64th overall in the 2016 NFL Draft, the Titans found a hidden gem in Kevin Byard. Since his rookie year, he has quietly been one of the better safeties that nobody really talks about.

He has steadily improved and has had at least 80 tackles and 60 solo tackles every year since 2016.
