Leroy never got the credit he deserved from people outside Green Bay because he was overshadowed by Favre and Reggie White. His 1996 season when he had 5 INT's, 1 for a TD, and 6.5 sacks was one of the greatest ever for a safety.

He was the last all 90's player left put pf the hof (I think). About time
Good on him.
Long deserved.
30 + int's & 30+ sacks. Wow.

Sorry, but I can only recall two things about Butler: 1) Butler telling Cinderella Man, Roose Blackmon to get off the field in a PRESEASON game and 2) Peter North lookalike, Ed McCaffrey, dragging Butler up the field for 6.
Ok I keed, I keed. I remember the first ever Lambeau Leap. Butler was probably Polamalu before anyone had ever heard of Polamalu. I dunno what misdeed Justice did that warrants getting served, but Butler is indeed worthy of immortalization.
Will Al Harris ever get in?

Long overdue. Probably the happiest I've been about a Packers player getting in.

Aside from being a Sherman acquisition, Harris refined, if not revolutionized, the bump-and-run. Prior to Harris, everybody typically sat back and played the “Pistol Force.” Additionally, Harris made studying cool. Used to be, all the corners out there wanted to be like moi childhood idol, Neon Deion: party all week, show up on Sunday and shut down the numero uno.
Al Harris is worthy of a bronze bust.

I think Harris is massively underrated and had a big impact. I doubt he ever makes the list of 15 with the Committee thpigh

Agree. Dude had a nice career, better than most. But if you look at the list of HoF DB's, he's not at their game-changing level.

Now that the Hall of Fame has elected Terrell Davis and Tony Boselli, it's time to get Sterling in.

Two brilliant players with short careers.
That would be a nice precedent for Sterling.

Most of this post is a lie. Tank doesn't understand the x and o side of the game, so he lies and pretends he knows things.
The forces aren't a part of pass coverage, st the first part of this is a lie.
Bump and run (Really known as press coverage) also far predates Harris' tenure with the Pack.
Tank understands very little of the technical side of the game3. A while back, he was bragging how smart he was bc he knew what the "A gap" was
Al and CWood both got in the Packer HOF at the same time, but the ceremony was private bc of Covid.
I'd like to see them reprise the induction so the fans could enjoy it,

Good to see ya, Kentucky. Hope you’re not too heartbroken about your 2nd favorite team losing the Super Bowl.
I didn’t watch, not even the post game highlights. How did OBJ play?

Dang. That’s a hapless, bittersweet ordeal. At least he has won a ring.

Very happy for him and we'll deserved. For some reason, though, I thought it would never happen.
