My hero was born in 6/22/1978 in Folkston, Virginia and he went to Charlton County High School in Virginia. In college he went to Georgia college and played there for thee years until the NFL wanted him. For the NFL draft he was drafted number number 7 overall by the Washington Redskins, and in 2003 he was traded to the Denver Broncos where he has been playing ever since and people consider him to be the best in the NFL up to date. His name is Champ Bailey and his younger brother Boss Bailey went to the same college as his brother Champ did and the same high school as well.

He played for the Lions for at least 5 years and only played for the Denver Broncos for one year until he underwent a bad injury to his ankle and is now playing as a free agent in the NFL, hopefully the Broncos will pick him up again so the Bailey brothers can be reunited and play for the same team once again. Champ Bailey is a 32 year old veteran playing for the Denver Broncos he is a big African American who has short black hair and is 6ft tall and weighs 192 pounds he is a very quick player. He is the fastest in the NFL the one that inspired me to play football in the first place. He has a sister named Danielle Bailey. I'm not real sure if he has a girlfriend or not but that's his life right now.(2)

Many teams in the NFL are looking forward to getting Champ Bailey as he enters the end of this year he will be a free agent unless Josh McDaniels, the head coach of the Denver Broncos can find a way to pay enough money to keep the Elite Cornerback with an overall of 95 in Denver. Champ Bailey is considering his options if the team does not resign him at the end of this years NFL season.

Hopefully the team can keep him in Denver to inspire more people to play football by watching him play the sport and so our defense will drop dramatically over the off season and the entire next season in Denver it will cost the Denver Broncos $63.00 to $73.00 million dollars if they want to keep this player on the Denver Broncos. He had an older brother that played for a few years until he had a career ending injury. He played for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers(4).

After watching Champ Bailey play football I decided it looked fun to play the sport because of how many people like and play football and I have always wanted to play the sport anyway. Right now Champ Bailey is still the best Bronco player that we have on our team for defense. All the things he has done ever since he came from the Washington Redskins have inspired me to play the sport of football. That is my hero that inspired me to play the sport of football. My hero was a real inspiration to me. He taught me that any sport is not that hard as long as you have fun with the sport.
