HOF list of 17
updating the other HOF thread. DT is still on, and yes, I hope we get a good presenter this year too. 58 forever!
http://www.profootballhof.com/hof/st...?story_id=2285 Listed alphabetically, the 17 finalists with their positions, teams, and years active follow: Fred Dean - Defensive End - 1975-1981 San Diego Chargers, 1981-1985 San Francisco 49ers Richard Dent - Defensive End - 1983-1993, 1995 Chicago Bears, 1994 San Francisco 49ers, 1996 Indianapolis Colts, 1997 Philadelphia Eagles Russ Grimm - Guard - 1981-1991 Washington Redskins Ray Guy - Punter - 1973-1986 Oakland/Los Angeles Raiders Gene Hickerson - Guard - 1958-1973 Cleveland Browns Michael Irvin - Wide Receiver - 1988-1999 Dallas Cowboys Bob Kuechenberg - Guard - 1970-1984 Miami Dolphins Bruce Matthews - Guard, Tackle, Center - 1983-2001 Houston Oilers/Tennessee Oilers/Titans Art Monk - Wide Receiver - 1980-1993 Washington Redskins, 1994 New York Jets, 1995 Philadelphia Eagles Andre Reed - Wide Receiver - 1985-1999 Buffalo Bills, 2000 Washington Redskins Charlie Sanders - Tight End - 1968-1977 Detroit Lions Paul Tagliabue - NFL Commissioner - 1989-2006 Derrick Thomas - Linebacker - 1989-1999 Kansas City Chiefs Thurman Thomas - Running Back - 1988-1999 Buffalo Bills, 2000 Miami Dolphins Andre Tippett - Linebacker - 1982-1993 New England Patriots Roger Wehrli - Cornerback - 1969-1982 St. Louis Cardinals Gary Zimmerman - Tackle - 1986-1992 Minnesota Vikings, 1993-1997 Denver Broncos Dent, Grimm, Guy, Hickerson, Irvin, Kuechenberg, Monk, Derrick Thomas, Thurman Thomas, Wehrli, and Zimmerman have all been finalists in previous years. First to get cut - from the list of 25 (released in Nov) Terrell Davis - so quit talking about if he will make it this year, closet donkey fans Dermontti Dawson Randy Gradishar Kevin Greene Charles Haley Lester Hayes Randall McDaniel Art Modell Ken Stabler Charlie Sanders Gene Hickerson were added from senior members, they were not on the original 25. What is everyone's revised predictions? |

I'd like to see another Chief there but I don't have the feeling that DT is a lock. Better players have been overlooked.
There are quite a few people there that have had major impact on their teams, I'd say that it is a very difficult decision. How many people can get into the hall every year? Is there a limit? |

hardly an official answer, without looking it up, I think it's five.

Nick Bakay talks about the conference games and the HOF list, here's the link and what he said about DT:
http://www.superbowl.com/news/story/9937253 Nick Bakay's Manly House of Football Derrick Thomas: Another no-brainer -- he changed the game plan every time he lined up to attack the QB, and who knows what the final numbers might have been had he not checked out so tragically. |

This is a really weak class, DT should finally have an excellent shot of making it.

yeah, they only take three, but I thought they COULD go to five, I thought I remembered King writing about that topic a couple of years ago, I couldn't find it in his archives, but curious about what you all think/know on the topic.
