Mills
Seymour
Boselli
Wayne
Young
If Big Sey doesn't get in this year it's a crime.After Seymour hopefully makes it, next up we have to get Rodney Harrison in.
The only 2 players in NFL history with 30 sacks and 30 interceptions are Rodney and RLKAG. Below Scott Pioli outlines how Harrison had a better careeer than John Lynch who is already in the hof.
Why Rodney Harrison deserves to be in the Pro Football Hall of Fame
Scott Pioli says former NFL safety Rodney Harrison deserves a spot in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, and his argument isn't based on his own biases. Harrison's career production is comparable to a number of HOFers, including one member of the Class of 202www.nfl.com

And your spot on with Rodney getting snubbed it's ludicrous. Recently a bunch of Safeties have got in and other Than Reed he's as good if not better than all of them and Palamalu shouldn't even be in. Lynch, Dawkins, Atwater, too name a few I'll admit I'm biased but I take Rodney over them all. And Leroy Butler get out here with that crap Rodney's way better. I'd say Dawkins and Atwater are right there with Rodney. I think Lynch is close but not as good and I repeat Palamalu doesn't belong in the hall.
I kind of thought Rodney, Sey, Brady and maybe Vinatieri were supposed to be our locks from the OG dynasty. I always hoped after they got in maybe Willie could get some love but unfortunately the Hall hates Patriots and we'll be lucky to get our should be locks all in at all.
Of course TY tooMy energy would be focused on Ty Law, Richard Seymour, Rodney Harrison, Vinatieri from the first dynasty. The second dynasty I may be a biased homer on this but I'd fight for McCourty, Patrick Chung, Hightower, Gronk.
And Brady obviously when he retires in 10 years.
He's lonelyTy is already in
I hate the Steelers as much as the other guy, but let's be real, Polamalu belongs.If Big Sey doesn't get in this year it's a crime.

I just looked at Polamalus stats and maybe I was a little hard on him. I can't shake the fact that Brady owned his ass and could make him bite on the wrong thing regularly. But I guess that's an unfair standard too. But in looking at his stats it stands out to me that Rodney has better sack and int numbers both regular season and playoffs and playoffs wasn't close.I hate the Steelers as much as the other guy, but let's be real, Polamalu belongs.
Rodney belongs too, I think his years in obscurity in San Diego seriously hurt his case. Voters remember two dominant years of Rodney, followed by a run of injury-compromised seasons in which he was clearly a lesser player. Who was watching him from '97 - '02? Was San Diego even watching?
Seymour and Boselli are the two most deserving candidates of the current list of finalists. They both did what they did better than anyone else in the game for a solid 5 year run. Ware is #3, he has a DPOY under his belt and was a high profile member of a championship defense, 9th all time in sacks, tied for 15th in forced fumbles. Off the WRs, It's time for pass rushers to get their respect in the hall.
