#1 Overall pick to HOF?
-
The last overall #1 draft pick to have become a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame was Troy Aikman taken by the Cowboys in 1989. Since then, here is the list of the #1 overall draft selectees:
1990 Jeff George
1991 Russell Maryland
1992 Steve Emtman
1993 Drew Bledsoe
1994 Dan Wilkinson
1995 Ki-Jana Carter
1996 Keyshawn Johnson
1997 Orlando Pace
1998 Peyton Manning
1999 Tim Couch
2000 Courtney Brown
2001 Michael Vick
2002 David Carr
2003 Carson Palmer
2004 Eli Manning
2005 Alex Smith
2006 Mario Williams
2007 Jamarcus Russell
2008 Jack Long
2009 Matthew Stafford
Who among these are potential Hall of Famers? I see perhaps two right now.
2010 Sam Bradford

Pace and Manning are slam dunks. Hopefully, Keyshawn Johnson won't get much consideration. He has the stats, but was nothing more than a possession receiver. Bledsoe will get a few votes someday but will never get in.
once a fan, always a fan. married to a steeler fan. aaaaaaaaah! --andy -
I see one. Peyton Manning. Who do you see as the other? Pace? Because the rest, to me, have no chance

I agree about Keyshawn. Plus didn't he get sent home for half a season by his coaches? If they won't let Cris Carter in then Key shoulkd never even get a snif

umm, duh, Tim Couch
-
Jake Long will make it if he keeps having the kind of career he has had so far.
Ruining threads since 1897. -
Pace, Manning

Manning is in. Pace will get in. Nobody else even close, however the young guys have time to build a resume.Zombo
Drew Bledsoe is close, but just not there. He did throw for 44, 611 yards. No bad.
Pace and Manning.

Yes, I was thinking Pace.

Note that in the 15 years prior to Aikman there were 4 HOFers among the #1 overalls: Leroy Selmon, Earl Campbell, John Elway, and Bruce Smith.

Nice post Gip.
I think if Eli wins a couple of more rings he could be a candidate.

It's the only way he'll ever get it because he's not all that good. He's certainly not his brother and even he's a bit of a choke artist but he'll get in on sheer numbers alone and his one Super Bowl win. He's also a tactician. Eli is the runt of that family.

Eli is the runt of that family.I see you cover all the bases with your thoughts as usual so if anyone disagree's with you you have a "safety valve" so you don't look like an idiot.
You said he is not all that good. I classify Good as above average. So not all that good should equal below average.
Right?
He is a choke artist and the runt of the family and will get in on sheer numbers even though he's not all that good?
But then he is a tactician?
someone who is skilled in the planning and execution of tactics. Sounds alot like some of the very top Qb's in the league.
Not the below average runt your describing.
Keep up the good work chief , at least we have a good whiping boy.

Try and follow along dip sh.it. I agree that I probably could have made that a bit more clear but I transition to Peyton for the last part. He's a choke artist but does have his one Super Bowl and his regular season stats are ridiculous. Eli has his ring but he's no Peyton. Once again could have been more clear but was it really that hard to follow?
Who's the whipping boy again?
he just misunderstood what you said I think, made sense to me

thats because you have a Stooler fan who cant keep up and when he doesnt agree or understand it...he spins things so it fits and corresponds to his world..He likes to forget hes on enemy territory here and just by his mere associtaion with all things black and urine he thinks somehow hes exempt of any or all critcism. But he forgets...he has to play by our rules...not his. Hes the guest here. He claims hes here to "get Information" and follow the AFCN wich I call BS...He claims were all here just to start threads on the Stoolers but he cant help but feel compelled to comment on every lil negative thing he reads and in his mind its somehow unjust..Lest what should he expect here?.. not to get critisized?...Whats even more funny is to watch him chase things that I or someone might throw out...you know why we doit?...Because we know he;s a sucker and he'll jump on it and to us...its just hilariouse watching him make a total ass of himself just becaus he needs to be right all of the time.

lol. I'd hate to break it to you Capt. Can't Spell but
1. You aren't that clever.
2. I'm not that gullible.
3. Idiot clearly misunderstood my post as already pointed out.
Who's dancing again?
AKA SNATCH98 or Rorbotron. The boards glorious admins decided to get cute and change my name to "homotron" Classy group of people. (Lost a bet with Columbus king and got banned for a month) -
Homo, wtf do you mean when you say half the crap you do?
follow along on what? you talk sideways, retract statements and say you meant it a whole different way than the first time. You backed one statement up with one 2 year old article.
But you said eli is not that good.
he is a choke artist and a runt.
then a tactician.
Now he puts up ridiculous numbers?
But he is no Peyton Manning?
Seriously! That's not even close to the same!
That is just the opposite of what you said.
There are 30- 31 starting qb's that aren't a Peyton M. And a ton that can't even hold his jock. That's not a shock to anyone who waches football it's a fact.
Hell you take away the steelers D and make the big fag win games with his arm like Peyton, shitsburgh is a .500 club at best.
Im not sure if you're a woman or not, most chicks talk football like you.
I guess if you get lost easy when you drive you just might wanna do a gender check
