I'd guess he has as good a chance as anyone tomorrow. But this year too hard to predict, they could go Wistert or Slater or Covert. Raider people want Lester the Molester, Cincy fans want the Rattlesnake. Bronco fans want Louis Wright or Gradishar . . . jsut a lot of possibilities

NY media is really pushing him. He had 2 great seasons...and some other good ones. But 4 Pro Bowls? Seems light. I know, someone will say he got there at 3 positions... yeah. Ok In 1983 hje went in place of someone. In 1984 he missed 4 games had 3 sacks and he goes to the Pro Bowl as a DT. So, to me, one of his "DT" Pro Bowls should have an asterisk.

1985 and 1981 were legit.The rest? Questionable.

It seems one of the arguments is they need a Jet to get in. Same with Ken Riley. IF he emerges tomorrow it would be a disappointment on a Floyd Little scale. Same with Klecko. Same with LC Greenwood, but he'd be better than Little

Brazile had a very high peak, then in the early 1980s, Dr Z noticed a huge dropoff. Also, if they put in 3 Oilers from that defense...it means it was quite underachieving, no?

Here's hoping to a good pair.

In the discussions I have had with selectors this year, it seems like they think he will have an easy time getting in. Of course, they may have thought that the last 10 times he has come up.
