First of all, until this batch of Steelers win 2 more SB, you can leave off the comparisons to Stallworth and Swann. For several years, Canton was intent on putting as many of those '70's Steelers in the HOF as possible. I'm surprised Rocky Bliar isn't in. They also played in a different era with regard to WR stats.
Ward is a possession receiver, which will work against him (see Art Monk). He isn't a game changer or one of the very elite WR of his generation. He's very good, consistent and does a lot of things well. IMO, he needs 1 of the following 2 to have a decent shot:
12,000 career yards
another SB apperance, win would be better.
If he got both, it would be a slam dunk.
