Kurt Warner<\/a> might be the NFL's biggest feel-good story of all time. He's probably the biggest rags-to-riches story as well.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n The former St. Louis Rams,<\/a> Arizona Cardinals, and New York Giants quarterback became an instant hit during his first year as a starter in the NFL. He led the league in touchdown passes, earned the MVP, and guided his team to a berth in the Super Bowl years after getting cut by the Green Bay Packers. Warner's rise to the top is astonishing, but is he the best undrafted NFL player of all time?<\/p>\n\n\n\n After playing his college football at Northern Iowa, Warner went undrafted. The Packers signed him as an undrafted free agent, but with Brett Favre,<\/a> Mark Brunell, and Heisman winner Ty Detmer on the roster, Green Bay released Warner before the regular season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n He played with the Iowa Barnstormers of the Arena League and the Amsterdam Admirals of NFL Europe before getting a chance with the Rams in 1988. Warner, however, is far from the only undrafted player who went on to have NFL success.<\/p>\n\n\n\nKurt Warner has some serious competition for being the best undrafted NFL player of all time<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
