    All of the above. I realize this might not be the most informed answer, but I will say that each of those players statistically belong in the HOF. I don't think they will get in at the same time, but at some point yes. I think for each player (offensive players) their yardgae is a big reason as to why they should get in. For example, I think Drew Bledsoe had a proflic career before his injury he had proven what an asset he was to the Patriots and later the Bills. Bledsoe actually ranks 8th in all time passing yards. To be in the top 10 I think you deserve a nod for the hall of fame. Another player in that list, is Jerome Bettis. I think he will get his time sooner rather than later. Bettis ranks 5th all time in rushing yards. To be that close to the top 3 is nothing short of amazing. I would even throw Vinny Testaverde in the mix, but he wasn't exactly an accurate QB. But I think all of those players are worthy. Will they or should they get in during the 2012 enshrinement? I say yes, but I doubt all of them will get that chance.

    If they only take 1 WR this year then take Andre Reed. Sorry Cris but you gotta wait.

    I think Bill Parcells has a case as a coach.

    They always gotta take 1 big ugly and that looks like it'll be Will Shields.

    They could take Tasker if they all of a sudden grew a ***** for special teams but I doubt it.

    Other than that I'll be fine however it works out. As long as Reed is in, I will be happy.

    WTF Drew Bledsoe? Not knocking him cause he was great but they still havn't put Kenny "The Snake" Stabler in the Hall of Fame, he was the Raiders greatest QB and one of the NFL's top 20! They need to put in Daryl Johnston, he was the best FB of his era. He got Emmit most of his rushing yards.

  • Where's Jonathan Odgen?

    Good list, though.
