Roger Vick

Roger Vick (born August 11, 1964 in Conroe, Texas) is a former professional American football fullback in the NFL for the New York Jets and Philadelphia Eagles from 1987 to 1990. He played college football at Texas A&M University. He also played on the Orlando Thunder in the World League.
Vick was the only fullback selected in the first round of the 1987 NFL Draft. It is customary for fullbacks to be selected in the mid-rounds or later, as fullbacks are often not considered as important as other skill players on offense, which was why many were surprised by the Jets selecting Vick in the first round, especially with future All-Pro lineman Harris Barton still on the board.
Vick's best season came in 1988 when he rushed for 540 yards on 128 carries (4.2 YPC) and three touchdowns. He also caught 19 balls for 120 yards that season.
