Next Seahawk HoF...

[oldhawkfan]

Kenny Easley is now the 4th Seahawk to be an NFL Hall of Famer. Who's Next? The only player from the 1970s is Steve Largent. Easley and Tez from the 1980s. Big Walt from the 1990s. I doubt we will see any more from the 70s. How about the 80s? Who else could we see? The 90s will probably see 1 or maybe 2 more. 2000-2017 should eventually see a fair number of Seahawks. Who could possibly be next?
Hutch? Alexander? Warner? Green?

Realistically I think Hutchinson will get serious consideration. Shaun Alexander doesn't seem to be getting much of a sniff. Jacob Green deserves consideration but that would be up to the senior committee and with so many names to consider don't hold your breath. Curt Warner just didn't do enough.

But man, 10-15 years from now will be fun.

 

[Steve2222]

Cortez never played a game for the Seahawks in the 80s lmao. Also, Walt is about 50-50 between the 90s-00s.

The next Seahawk in the HoF will probably be Shaun Alexander if Earl Thomas, Richard Sherman, and Bobby Wagner don't beat him there first. Russell has no shot to be next as he'll play into his 40s. It'll probably take Kam awhile to get in.

What will it take to get Baldwin into the hall? I am hoping he makes Cris Carter eat his words at some point.

WR is arguably the toughest position to make the HoF. He really has no chance.

 

[Seafan]

A Seahawk who deserves consideration is Dave Brown. A physical corner who also was a ball hawk, he set a record of 10 interceptions one season and returned two ints in one game for long TDs. Brown has sadly passed and has no champion to push his candidacy. Brown, like Easley, was total class.

Since Terrell Davis got in it improves Marshawn Lynch's chances considerably.

TD was a Super Bowl MVP, Regular season MVP, 2x Super Bowl champ, and 2,000 yard single season rusher. That's why he's in.

If Marshawn can hit that 10,000 rush yard milestone, he probably will get in. But then again, a guy like Corey Dillon who rushed for 11k+ and 80+ TDs, won a Super Bowl, is not in the HoF.

I think Lynch will be next. After the Hawks win the Super Bowl this year, guys like Russ, Earl, Kam, and Sherm will be for sure HOF'ers, with Baldwin and Graham having outside shots.

Baldwin will need to go on a 100+ catch, 1,000+ yard, 10+ TD per season 5 year stretch to even sniff the Hall.

The hall is logged jam at WR. Marvin Harrison, Torry Holt, and TO aren't even in the hall of fame. Hell Moss might not even be a shoe in for first ballot. It took Tim Brown like 11 years to get in. Also factor in Doug is playing in the same era as Julio Jones, Antonio Brown, Odell Beckham, and AJ Green, he really has no shot at all at making it.

WR is so tough to make the Hall of Fame. He'll no doubt be in the Ring of Honor though.

If he gets 888 yards this season Lynch will be the next Seahawk to get into the hall of fame. He was the best RB in football for 4 years and would have 10K yards.

Doesn't Graham already have a Superbowl ring? Or was that before he arrived in New Orleans.

What 4 years was he the best HB? I'd argue he was the best HB in 2014. The year Beast was first team all pro, 2012, was the same year Adrian Peterson was NFL MVP and 9 yards shy of the all time single season rushing record.

NOLA won the Super Bowl before Jimmy was drafted

Super Bowl appearances and championships carry a lot more weight for the HOF than most think

For the entire stretch from 2011-2014 he was the best running back in football. Someone may have had a better season during that period but nobody was better for the entire period.

Yeah that's definitely your homerism coming out
