What player in the NFL, past or present, would you have wanted to see succeed so badly but due to injuries, off the field issues, or whatever happened just derailed their career? For me it was unfortunate to see players like Josh Gordon or Justin Blackmon have their careers end or never getting back on track because of off-field issues.

How good could Josh Gordon have been if he didn't have substance abuse issues? I know the league was super overzealous with weed suspensions, but he legitimately had major issues. If he had received proper treatment and kicked that stuff, who knows how good he could've been.
