Re: Easley Selected as Senior Finalist
yes! I'd put him 4th on my deserving senior list after Wistert, Robinson, Slater but I can't complain!

Re: Easley Selected as Senior Finalist
Way down on my list. But still a deserving enshrine ... just hate to see Kramer and Robinson getting shafted again.

Re: Easley Selected as Senior Finalist
The more I'm thinking about this, I wonder if the recent Seahawks defensive dominance had any influence on this choice.

Ron Borges said on the TOF show last week that Jack Tatum was one of the senior finalists.
Re: Easley Selected as Senior Finalist
Easley is eminently more qualified. Also missing from the above outstanding is Del Shofner who, like Easley, is one of the few old-timers you can say was at one point the best in the entire NFL at his position.HBGFBFAN wrote:Ron Borges said on the TOF show last week that Jack Tatum was one of the senior finalists.
