Years Active: 2004, 2007-08

If not for some vicious hits to the head, Collie might still be collecting NFL paychecks. He was a dynamic player, a player who had 100+ receiving yards in 11 of his final 13 games.
Collie also did it against the best teams on the schedule. In three games against ranked teams in his career, he caught 23 passes for 299 yards and two touchdowns.
Plus, he gets bonus points for the “magic happens” comment.
