Future Hall of famers

[mightysimi]

Just to bust up the offseason I thought I would try something here.

Pick one player from each conference, 27 or under, that you believe is destined for the hall of fame and why. It is a pretty small sample size for most which I hope makes it challenging.

No picks can be repeated. Who ya got?

My picks:

AFC - JJ Watt (26) - Only player in history with 2 X 20 sack season. 2 x DPOY. Multiple pro-bowl and 1st team all-pro selections. By the end of his career he should be the all time record holder for passes defenced by a DL if he isn't already.

NFC - Luke Kuechly (24) - DROY, DPOY, Led league in tackles in multiple seasons. NFL record for most tackles in a game. Multiple pro bowls and 1st team all-pro selections. All around stud LB that any team would take in a second.

AFC: Andrew Luck (25) - A pretty easy choice. With the dearth of young QB talent in the AFC, he's essentially got a Pro Bowl selection locked up for the next 5+ years. That and he's already the benefit of a massive hype train that's followed him since college and he already has a passing TD title under his belt.

NFC: Richard Sherman (27) - He has it all. Gaudy INT numbers, 1st Team All Pro selections, memorable plays, a championship, and was the face of of the most dominant defenses in NFL history.

I was going to go with Sherman but only after making my picks I changed it to 27 to get more candidates. I can definitely agree with those picks.
