4. Levi Wallace, Cornerback

Levi Wallace was not drafted in the 2018 NFL draft despite thriving with the Alabama Crimson Tide. Wallace wasn't on the market for long as he joined the Bills for the 2018 campaign.

During his time with the Bills, Wallace thrived as a starter. He proved his ability to cut it at the highest level and was rewarded with a contract by the Pittsburgh Steelers. He remains in the league as a useful CB on playoff-chasing squads.
