The new guys seem strong at first glance, but I'm not sure that any of them have the resume to be a first-ballot guy. Obviously several will get in at some point, but none of them have slam-dunk resumes. The best prospects are going to be:
Joe Thomas - 10 pro bowls and 6 all pros in an 11-year career. (Compare to Wil Shields with 12 pro bowls and 2 all pros, who took 5 years to get in.) Darelle Revis - 6 pro bowls and 4 all pros in an 11-year career. (Compare to Albert Lewis who is still waiting for 18 years after 4 pro bowls and 2 all pros in a 16-year career.) That said, I think those guys will get in on the first ballot because I don't think there's stronger competition at their position other than maybe Albert Lewis. So if they get two spots, who do the other 2 to 4 spots go to? My recommendation would be: Torry Holt Jared Allen Albert Lewis I could see Gary Anderson or Demarcus Ware sneaking in to a final spot. Maybe Lance Briggs or Neil Smith or even James Harrison since the media people seemed to swoon over James Harrison. Charles Tillman is a long shot since he's got Revis and Albert ahead of him in line. Who else do you see on that list?

I should have included him on my list. I think he's definitely a strong candidate this year. I'd vote for him over Ware or even Neil Smith. I think he's in line behind Jared Allen, though.

for the first time nominees
Darrelle Revis and Dwight Freeney are probably locks Joe Thomas maybe a lock, but he played for the Browns.. I think guys like Anquan Boldin, Steve Smith, Andre Johnson could possibly get in or maybe Leslie O'Neal or Willie Anderson probably overlooking someone

Brian Waters has been overlooked for many years, so he'd get my vote.

Rainman,
I didn't realize so many of those players suited up for the Dayton Triangles!

Apparently it means they were a top-15 finalist last year.

I think Bob Sanders played for them. He may have been the greatest player ever based on what I've read and heard. It's unfortunate that I never got to see him play.

That's exciting news. I really think he deserves it.
