1942 *Bill Dudley, hb Virginia Pittsburgh 9 3
1945 *Charley Trippi, hb Georgia Chi. Cardinals 9 2
1949 *Chuck Bednarik, c/lb Pennsylvania Philadelphia 12 8
1957 *Paul Hornung, hb Notre Dame Green Bay 9 2
1963 *Buck Buchanan, dt Grambling Kansas City (A) 13 8
1968 *Ron Yary, ot Southern Cal. Minnesota 15 7
1969 *O.J. Simpson, rb Southern Cal. Buffalo 11 6
1970 *Terry Bradshaw, qb Louisana Tech Pittsburgh 14 3
1976 *Lee Roy Selmon, de Oklahoma Tampa Bay 9 6
1978 *Earl Campbell, rb Texas Houston 8 5
1983 *John Elway, qb Stanford Baltimore 16 10

I think Bruce Smith will get in. Aikman will get in too. Peyton should get in.

Bledsoes going to the hall of fame?

I guess based on that list he's deserving but I just dont look at him like he's one of the greatest Qb's of all time.How about Vinny T. being that high, he's got no shot at the hall.

neither is hall-worthy
it is more than numbers

I think bledsoe is borderline.Marino made it on numbers alone.
