While the 1999 NFL Daft featured eight players who were selected to the Pro Bowl at some point in their career during the first 11 picks, none of those guys have been inducted into the Hall of Fame as of yet. But the one guy who probably has the best chance would be cornerback Roland “Champ” Bailey, selected by the Washington Redskins with the 7th overall pick.

Bailey was easily the most consistently dominant players in a draft class that featured Ricky Williams, Edgerrin James, and Donovan McNabb. The 12-time Pro Bowl defensive back will likely garner lots of attention during the 2019 Hall of Fame voting.
