But, the HOF only votes on 5 players each year (I think), and competition is pretty tough. I think they consider Julius Peppers and Antonio Gates for sure, probably Dwight Freeney, and I think Patrick Willis as well. There’s also a shitton of great WRs on the docket like Reggie Wayne, Andre Johnson, Steve Smith Sr, and Torry Holt. I don’t think Hines leapfrogs these dudes for spot #5, Deebo might but also a lot of those guys were pretty great. Just a tough year for it
I think both have HOF worthy resumes
