Why do they have the Georgia Bulldogs logo in the Packers Hall-of-Fame?

If this were Dancing With the Stars when you're down 38-0 then absolutely. It's not, so...you know. However, if you want to put him on there go right ahead.

GOOD LORD. I left out Chuck Bednarik of the Eagles.
Yeah was gonna point that out.

I would have also had Wes Chandler for Chargers and Deacon Jones for Rams. Swap YA Tittle for Gifford and put Morten Anderson on Saints. Andre Rison and Dion Sanders for Falcons.

BUCCANEERS--Derrick Brooks, John Lynch, Warren Sapp, Lee Roy Selmon.

That is pretty good.

A few I would have.

Deion Sanders with the Falcons instead as d of White.

I think I would put Mike Ditka on the Bears instead of Singletary.

Randy Moss inste as d of Peterson on Vikings, but that is close.

Steve Young instead of Roger Craig. Tough not h as bing YA Tittle. Could be on NYG as well.

Tough not having Deacon Jones on Rsms but not sure who to take out.

Sammy Baugh instead of Art Monk on the Redskins.

Tough between John Mackey and Harrison on Colts.

I would have Roethlisberger over Bradshaw.

Champ Bailey instead of Rod Smith on Broncos.

Adam Vinatieri instead of Tippett on Patriots.

Not sure about Dan Marino. He is the reason Ray Finkle missed that kick.

Raiders - Ken Stabler over Plunkett

Maybe work one of Otis Sistrunk, Dave Casper, Ted Hendricks or Lester Hayes in there

For the Eagles you are probably 3 out of 4

If you go by fan's opinion, Donovan McNabb does not even come close to sniffing it.

Objectively McNabb probably does not belong there either.

The only way McNabb belongs on this list is if the requirement is to include a QB. McNabb is greatest franchise QB so far by numbers, though there is a good chance Wentz will surpass him there, even if he does not win a Super Bowl. If Wentz wins a Super Bowl it does not even come close. Is McNabb one of the greatest four franchise players? Definitely not.

Greater franchise player beyond doubt of those left of the list: Chuck Bednarick (though I can imagine if you have blocked him from your mind, seeing what he did to Gifford).

Looking by fan-following/fan-reverence:

The likes of Jerome Brown, Randall Cunningham, Jason Peters, Harold Carmichael, Herman Edwards, Duce Staley (possibly), Brian Westbrook and Nick Foles all easily surpass McNabb.
Mcnabb was their star player (not as good as Dawkins though) during their most successful stretch in the super bowl era. I'm not sure which player bednarik should replace (not Dawkins) but Mcnabb is certainly in the thick of this discussion at least until wentz and/or foles replaces him.

I would replace Warner with Deacon, Warner meant a lot to the Cards organization too, Deacon was the Fearsome Foursome. He was a Ram.

Alexander?

ET is the heart of the D that was tops for many years
RW helped guide the Hawks to its first SB win
Tez/Largent/Big Walt are HoF

I love SA but I think he's just on the outside. I actually think Wags would be ahead of SA.
