Sherman switched from receiver to cornerback midway through his college career after a knee injury. That decision launched Sherman into superstardom as he carved out an illustrious NFL career. The face of the Seahawks' legendary Legion of Boom secondary, Sherman captured one Super Bowl trophy, five Pro Bowls, and 37 career interceptions.

Edelman played as a quarterback and rusher in college, but it'd be receiver where he'd find a ton of success in the NFL. A seventh-round pick by the Patriots, Edelman became a postseason hero as one of Tom Brady's favorite targets. His long list of NFL accolades includes three Super Bowl titles, a Super Bowl MVP, and the third-most receiving yards in postseason history.

Tannehill spent his first two seasons at Texas A&M as a receiver, even posting an 800-plus-yard campaign in his freshman year. He took over the quarterback position full time in his final season and turned that opportunity into a top-10 selection by the Dolphins in the 2012 NFL Draft. While he didn't find success right away, he's become a reliable and productive starter for the Titans over the last four seasons. 

Unlike the others, Woodson changed positions while in the NFL, moving from cornerback to safety in hopes of extending his career. After nearly a decade and a half of incredible play at CB, Woodson's final years came as a ballhawk. He recorded 10 picks, four forced fumbles, and one defensive touchdown in his final three seasons, which all came with the Raiders.
