38. Ahmad Rashad
A four-time Pro Bowler, Ahmad Rashad (the one who really had Mrs. Huxtable) always seemed to secure clutch passes.  Rashad would finish in the top ten in Receptions five times and had well over 5,000 Receiving Yards for the Vikings.  Most notably, Rashad caught a Hail Mary pass in 1980 that won Minnesota the NFC Central Division Title.  We guarantee that this reception alone has earned him many free drinks in Minneapolis!

The popular player entered the Vikings Ring of Honor in 2017.
