Andre Reed 2012 HOF should be a lock

[YardRat]

Should be the year of the WR, also...

Former New York Giants (http://topics.bloomberg.com/new-york-giants/) running back Tiki Barber and Super Bowl-winning coach Bill Cowher are among the first-year candidates eligible for induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame (http://www.profootballhof.com/default.aspx).
Wide receiver Keyshawn Johnson, quarterback Drew Bledsoe and offensive lineman Will Shields are among the other former players nominated for the first time.

Pretty weak class for first-time eligibles, IMO...Reed, Carter and Brown should be givens, and please for the love of the football gods put Ray Guy in where he belongs.

He's not getting in.

[Mr. Pink]

4 WRs won't make it in in one year when only 4-7 people get enshrined every year.

I can see Will Shields, Bill Cowher, Bill Parcells and Tags making it. They'll be 1-3 players on top of that to make it.

Cris Carter is due. Joe Jacoby is due. Curtis Martin.

Wouldn't say Reed is a lock.
