John Elway's path to the NFL was unique in several ways, setting him apart from many other players. First of all, he was a 2-sport athlete in college. Elway was not only an exceptional football player but also an accomplished baseball player and became a highly regarded prospect. He played college football at Stanford University, where he earned recognition as an All-American and won the Pac-10 Player of the Year award. However, when it came time for the NFL Draft in 1983, Elway's desire to have control over his professional career led to a unique situation. He made it clear that he did not want to play for the Baltimore Colts, who held the first overall pick. This led to a high-profile trade that sent Elway to the Denver Broncos, where he would spend his entire Hall of Fame career.
