Here is a list of guys who went from 21 on back to 1996. I threw in the 2003 guys at the end even though its to early to tell on most of them.
Surprisingly, the odds seem a little better than I thought for gettiing a guy who can play some. However, most of them look like long development for not so much reward. The odds of a diamond find here seem pretty slim, but there is some nice costume jewellery I guess (smile)....
