Wow, that's too bad about Modell. Sniff, sniff.My Fave Five would be Rice, Emmit, Carter, Dent ... and, hate to say it: Shannon Sharpe
Randle, Reed, Brown, Haley and Dawson deserve to get in before too long.

Im surprised you didn't pick Ray Guy since you are so into special team guys. where are all the punt returners?

Steve Tasker was a special teams tackler... he's on the list that didn't make the final list. That's all he really did too.
Now get off it CardDawg. Cribbs is the heart and the soul of the Browns. Without him, the Browns will not have that emotional leader they need.

wow this class is going to be stacked. smith, rice and sharp are all at the top of there position stat wise and carter and brown are most likely in. this could be a class with 7 or 8 people.
*note: i live in canton and hate hall of fame season every year. it takes 20 minutes longer to get somewhere than it usually does and you have to put up with other team's morons getting drunk and hear about how great their certain player was. the worst will be when jerome bettis gets in. i won't want to be in a 50 mile radius of this place.

FYI, I understand the Maximum allowable for induction is 7, so there could not be 8 going in. (though certainly there are 8 viable candidates)

Russ Grim should get in this time..Was a mainstay of the Redskins wining 4 Superbowls. One of the best guards ever.
Jerry Rice..argueably the best ever WR. No brainer for HOF
Emmit Smith..NFL's all time rushing leader...No brainer for election

Yea, like I said, 4 of the 7 spots are locked up: Rice, Smith, Little, LeBeau.
And I agree with you on Grimm, but he has been a finalist 3-4 times and has not yet made the cut.

thats just it Queerbo, you never bothered to listen to offers. just like dawgpound mike you just bitch and moan about what the fans want not what is better for the team.

i can't see why chris carter has not gotten in yet. His numbers are staggering. I don't really care for the guy and think he's an awful commentator, but the numbers speak for themselves. Jerry Rice obviously getting in hurts his chances though.
Per Wikipedia
Carter finished No. 2 behind Jerry Rice in career receptions (1,101) and touchdowns (130) by a receiver. On December 28, 2008 Marvin Harrison of the Indianapolis Colts passed Carter to take the second place position in career receptions. He is one of only six players in NFL History with 1,000 or more receptions (1,101). He is the only player to record 120+ receptions in a season twice (1994 & 1995).
I mean, what in there makes him not HOF material? I'm necessarily lobbying for the guy just wondering what you guys think.

Well, you saw my post above. I believe CC should be in along with Rice, over the likes of Tim Brown, Andre Reed, Shannon Sharpe etc.

Did Art Monk finally get in? I seem to remember he finally got pushed through a couple years ago. If my memory is not failing me, then Carter will definitely get in, as his numbers far outstrip Monk’s.

Monk was elected 2 years ago, Feb. 2008. Here is his page from the HOF website:
