    Cornelius Bennett
    Kent Hull
    Chuck Knox

        Today another Bills HOF, Thurman Thomas, was signing autographs at Tops in Cheektowaga and I had him sign my 1992 SI "Super Bills" magazine cover...sweet signature and great guy. Damn, I miss the days when this team was actually any good!

            I found it interesting that there are players on there who only played 5-6 years. Terrell Davis? Korey Stringer(RIP)

            Gotta ask your thoughts....if Stringer didn't die, would he be on the list?

              die or not he shouldn't be on the list...he wasn't that dominating.

                I can see maybe why TD but Stringer? If he gets in over Reed, Hull or Tasker then Id be ticked. Its sad that he died but common.

                  imo only Reed ^ Hull are due now. W/ Tasker being later.
                  --I never viewed Bennett nor Talley as HOF, but i'd rejoice.

                    I don't get how Tasker is even on the preliminary ballot and a guy like Bill Bates never makes it that far.

                    Bates was just as good as Tasker during the same time period.

                    Maybe this year will finally be the year that Ray Guy makes it!

                        Really, Andre is the only one I think will be a lock, and by lock I mean in like five years.

                        Maybe, just maybe, Kent Hull as a veteran candidate.

                          Jerrt Rice, Emmitt Smith will get in...

                          If they bring in 2 WR'S, it will be Cris Carter...

                          Andre Reed will get bumped again!

                            Reed deserves it w/o question, but like many WRs, he'll have to wait his turn. Being involved w/CBS might eventually help Tasker's cause. Imo, Talley deserves it more than Biscuit - in ways that stats don't support.
