I would have picked Richard Dent, as I thought he was a better DE than his Bears teammate Dan Hampton, who's already in Canton.
Harry Carson.
Monk over Irvin.
Greenwood was as valuable to the Steel Curtain as Mean Joe.
Plus Marino and Young, of course.
There's my 6.
Honoring old-timers like Fritz Pollard and Benny Friedman is nice, but they should be in a separate voting category like baseball. I thought they were, but apparenly they're not. How the voters can pass on the qualifications of players they never saw is beyond me. And even tho I'm a Giants fan, I never heard of Benny Friedman before today

Just as you think (and I agree) that there should be seperate voting catagory for old timers,
I think that only a select few at any position should ever qualify as 1st year eligibly inducties. and not because they have to fill a number of inducties and have to pick the best of whats left of the finalist!!!
