I'd like to see the guys in bold get in, many are no-brainers. Ben will get in too.

Question: Can Mawae and Faneca merely be the OL versions of Vinny Testaverde? Long careers...but just OK? Or were these guys really the cream of the crop?
And why not Taylor and Thomas? Are you showing an anti-Dolphin bias? I know that the Dolphins hadn't been that great a team in their careers, but since Dan Marino, their QB situation has been just a tad above the Browns. Should that be held against these....seemingly outstanding defenders?

Mawae and Faneca were not "just OK" they were outstanding. Faneca did tail off some toward the end of his career when he got off the Steeler juice, but I think he has enough of a resume to get in as premier guard of his era.
Taylor may have a case, in fact I have no problem if he gets in. Thomas another guy that was very good, not great.

So, you think these Steeler OL were all juiced up. Has there been any confirmation of that....not that it would surprise me.
That would keep them out of Baseball's HOF....not sure about football.

All offensive linemen are juiced up. Steelers just ahead of the curve, always have the best stuff. They practically invented it in the 70s.

Of course, the real questions are: Why are not Marshall and Anderson in yet? Zombo might argue that they were not good enough.....
Zombo has Marshall in bold and thinks he is the greatest slight of all players not in the HOF.
Anderson was very good, not great.

I agree with Zombo living in Bungle-land. Anderson suffers from Archie Manning syndrome- a lot of his teams weren't very good, and his stats don't stick out particularly.

Testaverde had a long, and mostly mediocre career- though he's still in the top 10 in passing yardage- does that mean he should get in?
http://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/T/TestVi00.htm
& looking at PFR, Rothlisberger is a lock to get in when he hangs 'em up. Him and Tomlinson are two guys that could have been Browns, and we passed on both of them in the draft.

Well, there are a whole litany of guys that fit that mold, including Aaron Rodgers...or Joe Montana....or Tom Brady and probably Emmit Smith etc. etc. etc.

Warner is not in the Hall yet. His greatness was confined to shorter career with some mediocrity (Giants) in the middle, so he is a good example of someone who most definitely belongs in the Hall but doesn't top any numbers list.
If it was the Hall of Numbers, then Kenny Anderson would be in and Joe Namath would be out ... but is the Hall of Fame.

You ask an excellent question. While I have listed the top players in the pfr career production average.....that single stat, though it somewhat tries to be that, is NOT the be all and end all of things. Warner is actually way down on the CA.....because he had a somewhat short career....12 seasons. Compare to like Vinny T.....who had a very long career....and productive in terms of his total numbers...be that CA or completions/yards/TDs etc. But no one, I believe, would put him into the HOF over Warner whose stats are much, much lower than Vinny's.
So, I guess what I am saying is that my original post didn't ask....are these ALL of the players that warrant future HOF consideration.....it is just a specific list of players.....there are others.

Not in yet...see Zombo's post....but note......Favre and Marvin Harrison should be taken off that list above....as they have been elected...just not inducted.

Damn premonitions... swear I have an image of him in a gold blazer giving an inductance speech.
Maybe it was for the Arena HoF...

Here is a list of first time eligible players that will be up for the 2017 HOF Class:
Brian Dawkins DB
Tommie Harris DL
Chad Johnson (Ochocinco) WR
Larry Johnson RB
Thomas Jones RB
Olin Kreutz OL
Matt Light OL
Derrick Mason WR
Donovan McNabb QB
Joey Porter LB
Bob Sanders DB
Jeremy Shockey TE
Jason Taylor DE
LaDanian Tomlinson RB
Whines Hard WR
Ricky Williams RB
LDT, to me is the only Nicollete Sheridan in this bunch. The interesting one will be Donovan McNabb.
And besides Warner, here are some other current eligibles who may also be highly considered:
Isaac Bruce
Tori Holt
John Lynch
Terrell Davis.
Morten Anderson
T.O.
Kevin Mawae
Edgerrin James
Faneca
Joe Jacoby
Steve Atwater
Who among these will/should make it?

I have been waiting for 2 Defensive players to be elected in. One famous Nose Tackle is long over due, N.Y. JETS, #73 Joe Klecko, and our very own BROWNS LB, #57 Clay Matthews, clay should go in for a team record holder, and for longevity and years of service.

Problem is that neither of those guys have even made the Finalist list any time lately. While Clay was one of 108 semifinalists, Klecko didn't even make that.

I have a major beef with the committee who finalizes the induction into the H.O.F. I want to know why after being retired for 33 yrs, and now has passed away, Raiders QB Ken Stabler is inducted? I want to know why he is selected this year and not years ago? I feel the committee has a ignorance toward Stabler, and that's why he was always left out, but now that he passed away, oh we feel its time to put him in. BULL SHIT.
The man's records haven't changed since 1982.
I feel he has been selected in now only because he is passed.

Hines Ward should.
Has the stats. 2 X Super Bowl winner, 4 X Pro Bowler (3x second team), SB MVP.
What puts him over the top is that no one has ever played the position like he has. Wasn't the prototype WR. Never took a play off, always looking to find someones head to knock off.

My wife is a hottie. She's never cheated on me and vice versa. We met in High School and married after I quit college. Shes a saint actually and I'm the luckiest guy on earth.Recall the other night you asking your wife where the fuck she was at 2AM? I was up because I just finished with her.
For you to even joke about sleeping with my wife is laughable. I'm '6 - ''2 and weight 255lbs with a 4% body fat. I'm 50 yrs old too and have a perfect smile. Dude there's no way she would fuck you.
