Eli will be controversial because of his lifetime numbers but historically multiple Super Bowl winning QB is pretty much auto HOF

Used to love watching Kuechly.

Guy was a stud. Hope he gets in

None are really deserving of entry if the Hall of Fame wants to embody greatness. Kuechly was a top 3 LB when he played but hardly played long enough to be a shoe in. Be great if they made Eli wait at least 1 year since his defense won two rings for him.

Keuchly was a beast before all the concussions.

Exactly - put Eli in another jersey than the NYG with a different last name… are we talking about him as a finalist in the first year ?

Kuechly short career hurts - short overall prime- deserves it but likely not this year.

Suggs
Vinateri
Harrison
Gates

Honestly I’m shocked Darren Woodson not in after 17 years of eligibility

He was the heart and soul of the the Cowboys Dynasty defense

Kuechly
Holmgren
Vinatieri
Manning
Yanda
Wisniewski all should be hall of famers!

Fukk no to Eli.

 

[Wagerallsports]

Eli will get in next time around

Steve Smith was a beast & best player on this list

Tampa Bay Hall of Fame CB Ronde Barber said Smith is the toughest WR he ever had to cover
