NFL HOFer "Ronnie Lott" success
Posted: Sun Nov 20, 2011 6:36 am
He is most well known for his crushing hits on opposing players. Noted for his toughness and a Pro Bowler at cornerback and both safety positions, Lott is widely considered one of the best defensive backs in NFL history. He was elected into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2000, his first year of elibigility. After college, Lott was drafted by the San Francisco 49ers in the first round (8th overall pick) of the 1981 NFL Draft. The level of skill demonstrated by the 6-foot, 203-pound standout was instantly recognized, and from the very beginning of training camp he had the job as the 49ers' starting left cornerback. In his first season, he recorded seven interceptions, helped the 49ers to win Super Bowl XVI, and also became only the second rookie in NFL history to return three interceptions for touchdowns. His outstanding play resulted in his finishing second for Rookie of the Year honors, behind New York Giants linebacker Lawrence Taylor.
