With Reek getting hurt and out at least a year (I think he does come back), which of these WRs should be in the HOF when they retire?

I feel like we (and I include myself in this) overvalue current players because they are doing good things NOW.

I'm not convinced any are locks TODAY, though clearly at least one or two appear to be on the verge.

It's the like QB convo where Stafford, Russ, Rivers are all getting in?

Can I tell the story of the NFL without P. Rivers? 100%.

I'm in wait and see mode.

Mike Evans is definitely a HOF.

DeAndre Hopkins also

Non of these guys went to LSU, so there's that...

I'd say Adams and Evans will get in at some point.

None of these guys scream out HOF to me..Hall of good but meh..

Cooks has had a weird career. Never really was able to develop with a single team. He’s only accumulated 1,615 yards the last 3 seasons but is still likely to break 10,000 career yards. A real what if career.

Otherwise we might as well call it the "Hall of Jim Brown and Tom Brady; Everyone else GTFO; Even you, Marino!"

Tyreek will probably get in eventually, but he is helped by the fact that we was all-decade as a punt returner.

Don’t worry Mike Evans gets in after DHop :)

None

This list sucks. None of these guys (maybe Evans as much as I hate to admit it... but that's violating my own rule) is a Hall of Famer

Yes I think a big portion of the HOF shouldn't be Hall of Famers

Here is the rule... if you to think about it because you either need to be convinced and/or justify your stance?

They aren't a HOF'er

Keenan Allen? Stefon Diggs? Get out of here with that nonsense.

They can put a HOF pretty good somewhere else. I don't care where

Tyreek is in.
Evans is in.
Adams is in.

Of the 3, Tyreek was the highest performing player, just hasn't matched the longevity.

Evans and Adams have accumulated far too many TDs to not get in.

Hopkins is borderline. It doesn't help that he hasn't been a top tier guy since 2020.

Evans has the Super Bowl and the record for 1000 meaningless yard stat thingy though

[QUOTE=packman80;20037394]No to Hill his stats right now won't get him in.[/QUOTE]

Quote me on this one and come back years from now:

Tyreek Hill will get in the Hall of Fame.



Sterling Sharpe is in. He only 3 All Pros and his stats are nowhere near Tyreek's.

Andre Johnson is in. He only had 2 All Pros and in 50 more games scored 25 less touchdowns.

Calvin Johnson is in. He only had 3 All Pros, 300 more yards, and 11 less touchdowns

And maybe this isnt the biggest thing to compare, but it'll play into the decision, if you compare playoff resumes:

96 receptions
1212 yards
7 TDs
1 Super Bowl Win

vs.

46 receptions
717 yards
3 TDs
No Super Bowl appearances...

From those other 3 receivers combined.

Trust me on this one, even if Tyreek never plays another NFL game, he's in. Above all else: [U]I can't find an eligible player with more than 2 1st Team all pro's who is eligible but never made it and fell off the ballot. T[B]yreek has 5. That is tied for second most all time among wide receivers, behind Jerry Rice and on par with Terrell Owens[/B][/U]

This is a silly conversation to even have.

Sharpe was the most 2nd most dominate WR of his era. Got hurt half way thru his career and played in a era were the RB still was more important then the WR. Hill is not even close to prime Sharpe. Calvin Johnson perhaps the most dominate WR during his playing days. Hill not even close to the most dominate WR during his time. Plus Hill is a POS voters will also consider that too.

I do think with a little more production Evans and Adams do get in though.

Look at the riff-raff Mike Evans had throwing him passes during his first 5 years in the league, and yet he was still able to put up 1,000+ yards each time. Not exactly a top-tier group.

Not that this hurts, but to be clear, one of those was as a PR his rookie year. He’s tied with Moss and Antonio Brown behind Owens, Alworth and Rice as a WR.

Evans, Hill & Adams.

I think Tyreek goes in even if his career is over. In fact, that might help his case in a way, rather than coming back for 1-2 subpar years. He has 4 1st-team All-Pros as a WR, I think that's enough.

Both Evans and Adams have 106 TDs and counting, I think that alone is enough.

Adams, Evans, Hopkins, are locks.

Allen needs a ring probably.

Rest no chance.

Edit : After reading what tjforce said about Hill he probably gets in. Somehow he has never stood out. Probably b/c he has been on all those bad Dolphin teams.

All that^ said...

I'd still take Tyreek over all these fools.

Gross list. All had some great seasons but HOF????

Nah, bra.

Maybe Hill if he had never joined Noodle Arm Tuna.

I think people are getting upset/misinterpreting this question. None are slam dunk first ballot guys, and about half won't even get to a semifinal vote. That's ok.... but when you take the time to evaluate who has been inducted and some of the benchmark criteria I think we can nail this one down pretty easy.


For everyone on this list not named Tyreek Hill; Lets use Cris Carter as the benchmark

Carter caught 1100 balls and had 130 receiving TDs, he had nearly 14k yards....... It took him 7 or 8 years to get in.

Mike Evans and Davante Adams are the closest comps in both general production with receptions and yards; and in the most important category which is receiving TDs.

Assuming Fitzgerald and Gronk make it (I think that's fair), the top 15 receivers/tight ends in history in receiving TD's are in the Hall...... All the way from Rice at 197 to Bruce at 91.

Currently Adams and Evans are tied at 9th with 106 receiving TDs...... they have counting stats that are enough to justify the 106 TDs being legit. Adams for me is the better player and his 3 first team all pros indicate that to be true. At the same time Carter's resume is better overall. I would suggest Adams makes the HOF on somewhere between the 4th and 8th ballot depending on how the dominoes fall. Evans I think will depend a bit more on longevity. If he gets close to that 130 TD mark then I'd suggest the same 4th to 8th ballot. If let's say he is done after this year...... I'd say 7th to 10th ballot.......... but Mike Evans, like Davante will make the hall if history and voter trends/benchmark stats hold true.

Deandre Hopkins falls under the 91 TD's and ultimately will make it I think but he is less definitive than Adams and Evans. Having 3 first team all pros is very impressive but I'm not sure people remember him in the same light as other guys who did the same. 1000 catches, 3 first team all pro, 85-90 TD receptions and over 13k yards is a very solid resume. I say he gets in 8th to 10th ballot, but if he didn't make it I wouldn't be shocked.

Tyreek Hill lacks some counting stats but is a 4 time first team all pro WR and made another first team all pro at PR. Hill was a huge catalyst to the beginning of a dynasty and it should be pretty clear to those who watched him at his best that he is clearly a HOF talent. If he were a better human being a think he's a 3rd or 4th ballot guy..... as it stands I do think off the field stuff will cause him to wait longer. In this case though I will take the peak 4 first team all pros with well above average counting stats, and the versatility to return kicks...... over pure yardage accumulation and an extra few hundred catches over the course of 12 years. I think he will be inducted 5th to 7th ballot.

Nobody else listed is worth mentioning because they don't compare to anyone already enshrined and are a huge step below the 4 players mentioned above

People need to remember it's not the NFL hall of fame. It's the pro football hall of fame.

Reek undoubtedly gets in after his twitch streamer career launches in an ishowspeed type trajectory.

It'll be like an urban version of Jabs Family with more kids and less middle america flea markets.

Josh McCown

Mike Glennon

Jameis Winston

Ryan Fitzpatrick[/QUOTE]True. No argument here. I've always felt Evans will be a borderline WR who eventually gets in.

Andre truly felt like a legit top 2-3 WR in the league for a while. I don't know if I would say that about Evans. His claim is being very good for over 12 years, plus SB and over 100 TDs and on one team so far.

Hill is unique where he has things that you can argue for him easily being a HOF but he just doesn't seem liked by most people. Owens has to wait three years but eventually snuck in but I'm just not sure Hill is that good.

Allen could sneak past Starving Marvin in all-time receptions by the end of next season if he stays healthy and keeps playing fairly well. It at least gives him a fighting chance but he has an uphill battle for any chance at a yellow jacket.

Davante Adams' 3 First-Team All-Pros have as much to do with the team he played for (Green Bay Packers) and who his QB was (Aaron Rodgers) during his prime years more than anything.

I guarantee you that if Mike Evans played for a larger market/Legacy team, like the Dallas Cowboys or Pittsburgh Steelers he would have at least 3 First Team All-Pros in the bank.

Tampa Bay's just one of those teams whose players (ever since the 2010's) routinely get short-changed in All-Pro Selections/Pro Bowl Selections.

Another prime example being Lavonte David, consistently one of the better linebackers in the league, and routinely named by coaches and those in football circles as one of the top defensive players of all time. Yet only one First-Team All-Pro (2013) and one Pro Bowl Selection (2015) to his name.

Place him on a team like Dallas Cowboys or the Packers and those numbers of selections probably increase six-fold or more, and his name is probably mentioned in the same breath as Junior Seau or Mike Singletary.

This can be said of any very good to great player on a small-market team, though.

Bottom line, the sad reality is, Lavonte David might never get a sniff of the Hall of Fame, which is a shame.

Oh well, more cards of his for me to scoop up dirt cheap. :)

It would be tough to leave out Allen if he was the all time receptions leader.

Injuries hurt his career a lot. Terrell Davis got in with lesser RB stats than most. He also has two rings. Without those rings I doubt he gets in.

If Allen won a ring, I think he would get the Davis treatment and be voted in.

I like the HOF test of thinking about it for one second only. Honestly I don't think Allen pasts that test for me. Either does Davis though.

It blows me away that some people think Allen should be in but not Hill.

to
Hill- 500 Receptions, 7000 Yards 60 TDS

[QUOTE=meandsharon11;20039694]I can and I did. The voters look at more than stats, and Evans accomplishments are more numerous and consistent.[/QUOTE]

Both players came into the league in 2014. Evans every year has seen over 100 pass attempts his way each season. Adams was treated as a #3/4 WR for his first two years. So I would say Adams has been more impressive that his 1st two years combined he had less stats then either of Evans 1st two years.

You guys are all forgetting that Hills all-decade team is absolute trash. All-decade team is generally a lock and helps players like Cortez Kennedy or Steve Atwater, but if there is one position that an all decade team isn't automatic it's wide out. He has a very good 2017, a great 2018 and was injured for part of 2019. Hard to argue all-decade lol

Adams and Hopkins have the peak, but have fallen off a bit these past few years. I have more faith that Adams can still be somewhat productive.

Evans is very comparable to Stafford IMO. Some people think he's a lock, some people think there is no way. I generally fall in the middle and think they're both borderline, but the SB win ultimately gets them in.

To me, Fitz is a lock. I don't think I can say of these guys are LOCKS. I'm not seeing how they are significantly better than Steve Smith, Reggie Wayne or Hines Ward. I personally think that Torry Holt is better than all of them.

Hill didn’t make the All-Decade team as a WR. He made it as a PR because of three great years.

Think of Jim Thome in baseball. Never really a big name and isn't strongly remembered, but then you see he had a .400 OBP, over 600 HRs and was probably clean, how can you not put him in?

Personally, I understand Gore having some pushback that someone like Tomlinson or Peterson doesn't have. In the end, Gores numbers will be too strong to ignore for Canton.

I could see a few of these guys making the Hall but there are much more deserving guys that have been waiting forever that aren't in. Hill is the only player on that list that passes the eye test comparison with some of the best of all time. The rest of them I would rank all behind a player like Antonio Brown who is also an outlier.

Adam Thielen????? Might as well add Tyler Lockett at that rate. Woof

Jimmy Graham does he go into the HOF? His stats are pretty comparable to Gronk who we all know is getting in. Only thing is Graham does not have all the rings Gronk does.

Thielen had me choking on my beverage....

Tyreek not making the Hall was less of a discussion after the 2023 season. Since then IMO he's been put off the trajectory of being a lock. I'll be interested to see how that actually plays out.

[QUOTE=Archangel1775;20039028]Ya'all crazy, Tyreek Hill is on the 2010's All -Decade Team and will also be on the 2020's All -Decade Team.

and I really don't like the guy

He's one of those guys that will be considered the best of his generation regardless of where his stats end up, similar to Megatron. But he has a sh*t load of stats too. Haha

Also, in case you weren't aware:[/QUOTE]

He should be in the HOF.

I overlooked him initially because he has been on a lot of crummy Dolphins teams. That is the only blemish on his record.

Adams is more deserving than Evans.

3 1st Team All Pros - Evans has 0. If you don't think that matters you are in denial.

Same # of TDs. Adams has more than 1 season worth of receptions also.

Evans will get in eventually. His consistency is what helps his case.

Super Bowl Ring >>>>> 3 1st Team All-Pros

[QUOTE=majestik101;20043866]Super Bowl Ring >>>>> 3 1st Team All-Pros[/QUOTE]

That's not how it works, bro.

Super Bowl rings are like 3% of the formula for non-QBs.

[QUOTE=packman80;20037394]No to Hill his stats right now won't get him in.[/QUOTE]

5x AP is only topped by Rice and Alworth. He's probably in but might have to wait like most at that position.

Adams and Evans are tied for 7th all time TD leaders at the position. They both probably get in. No shock if it takes a couple years for either. Hopkins leads active players in yards. Also 3x AP. He's also likely in, perhaps with a mild wait as well.

Kelce is a TE and he's practically a lock in first year of eligibility.

The others are probably Hall of Very Good when you consider Reggie Wayne and Steve Smith are not in yet.
