Re: Former Steelers Heath Miller, Casey Hampton Nominated For NFL HOF
I hate Drew Bledsoe, if he stayed healthy, Tom Brady would have been a career backup that nobody would’ve known
Re: Former Steelers Heath Miller, Casey Hampton Nominated For NFL HOF
Looking at that list, I would say Faneca has to get in this year. Outside of Peyton Manning and Charles Woodson, I don't immediately see anyone else that I would say is a lock to make it.

Faneca lives in my town now. I hope he gets in.
Re: Former Steelers Heath Miller, Casey Hampton Nominated For NFL HOF
Some good LBs on this list.
P.Manning, C.Woodson, Faneca, and I'll add John Abraham.
Re: Former Steelers Heath Miller, Casey Hampton Nominated For NFL HOF
It seems like a lot of players on the list played in the NFL for a long time rather than HOF accomplished players. Many of these names were good players during their time but I'm not sure HOF worthy. This could be Faneca's year, he was regarded as the best at his position. Torry Holt will get the call this year and possibly Reggie Wayne to go with Peyton and Ward waits another year or more. Charles Woodson is a shoe-in; he was one of the best "football" players to lace them up on Sunday's.

Manning, Woodson are the ones I'm sure will get in.
Johnson will probably get in before Hines. Even though Hines had a longer career and thus better number, the voters are going to figure Johnson retired just past apex of his career. Therefore they will credit him the numbers he would have accumulated. Nothing against Johnson his numbers over his short career are extraordinary. However, what should separate Hines from the cluster of Wide outs is that he is the best blocking WR ever and his Super Bowl MVP.
Faneca should have been in before but i think he will still have a wait. Boselli should get in as well.
Jake Delhomme, Jeff Garcia. Really?

Re: Former Steelers Heath Miller, Casey Hampton Nominated For NFL HOF
I doubt Miller or Hampton ever get in. A lot of the HOF is about stat compiling and these days TE put up crazy numbers.
Re: Former Steelers Heath Miller, Casey Hampton Nominated For NFL HOF
Manning, C. Woodson, Faneca, Reggie Wayne and somebody is gonna push Rodney Harrison and John Lynch in the voting, while I think Megatron is a no brainer.
Jeff Garcia?? Allen Rossum? Takeo Spikes? Joey Porter? Not gonna happen.
Re: Former Steelers Heath Miller, Casey Hampton Nominated For NFL HOF
Holy crap! I didn't realize Manning has been retired 5 years already.

Doesn’t seem that long at all right?
Re: Former Steelers Heath Miller, Casey Hampton Nominated For NFL HOF
Woodson probably gets in. Manning I think is 50/50 on whether he gets in (obvious joke before anyone takes it seriously and says something). Faneca I'll say is due but knowing guards don't get much respect and the HOF likes to limit Steelers in the hall he might not get in. I'd argue for Megatron to get in but he might not due to having "too short of a career" (even though there are plenty of players who played as many seasons or fewer and are in the hall). Megatron dominated the game and was unstoppable at his peak
