    He's a much better candidate than Sharper IMO... the dude is everything the HOF should be about. Game changing player.

      On and off of the field. The guy's been one hell of a leader these last couple of seasons. I think that went a long way towards the Lombardi this year. His speech after the NFC championship was a classic.

          First Ballot.

          Agree about Leroy Butler. Isn't LB the all time secondary sack leader?

That's important because it's easy for people to forget how great he was early in his career before he started to suffer some injuries. By the way, anyone who thinks Woodson plays close to the line of scrimmage because he can't cover anymore should watch a replay of the play on which he got hurt in the Super Bowl. He ran stride for stride with Mike Wallace for a long time.

            I think that turf toe was really bothering him early in the year.

              Hes also a member of the 2000's all decade team. I think a CB on any all decade team should pretty much be a lock.

                Leroy coulda played 1 year and I'd still vote him in for the lambeau leap(its not just for the offense!)

                  I happen to think when it is all said and done, he will be a shoe in.

                    The voters also look at the complete package of the player and not just on stats. Woodson has been an elite CB when it comes to rush defense. He's physical and doesn't miss a tackle very often. Very good at the blitz. Those are things that the HOF voters love. His versatility. I think the SB win got him as a lock for the Hall.

                      Winning the DPOY and a SB ring should be enough.

                        Thats the way I see it too. He has done too much of everything to not be. He made it to the SB with two team. He is popular with fans and players. He has a great reputation. He has the stats. He was all world in all leagues he has played in.

                        If Woodson doesn't get in fuck the Hall of Fame.

                          I can't believe Kevin Greene is not in. I can't say I have the most vivid memories of when he played, but I do remember he was a terror. His sack numbers are sick. He should be in. If Kevin Greene is not in, Charles Woodson might not be.

                              Then why isn't Leroy Butler in? 5 time All Pro. NFL All-Decade team for the '90s. Great tackler. Fantastic blitzer. First DB ever to have 20 interceptions and 20 sacks. Super Bowl win. Student of the game. NFL/Packer promoter. Fan favorite. Innovator of the Lambeau Leap.

                                There seems to be a built-in bias against certain positions in the hall. Safeties, Guards, TE's and Kickers have a much harder time getting in, even the great ones, because they are perceived as having a lower skill level than CBs, Tackles and WRs.
