Andre Reed has to get in the Hall of Fame this year, Right?
I look at this list, and cannot see one person that truly deserves to be in the Hall of Fame more than Andre Reed. The former Buffalo Bills wide out has missed the cut the past several years. He has been a champ about it, and continues to work as volunteer with the NFL trying to boost his chances. Reed has made the finalist list again so he is one step closer. Here is the list of 15 players that have a shot to make the Hall of Fame.
Morten Andersen
Jerome Bettis
Derrick Brooks
Tim Brown
Edward DeBartolo
Tony Dungy
Kevin Greene
Charles Haley
Marvin Harrison
Walter Jones
John Lynch
Andre Reed
Will Shields
Michael Strahan
Aeneas Williams
Several players did not get the nod though, Former Denver Broncos running back Terrell Davis again is not a finalist. Voters continue to punish him for his short, brilliant peak. Former NFL Commissioner Paul Tagliabue also didn’t make the cut. He is getting further away from enshrinement as the years go on, rather than closer. Tagliabue’s candidacy was once a hotly debated topic, but now he’s not getting a lot of support.
