The 25 modern-era semifinalists were announced yesterday. Beyond them, in celebrating the NFL's 100th Anniversary there will be 10 "senior" inductees named to the Hall of Fame next year. Who among these 25 do you think should make the cut? And which seniors would you love to see make it in?

Steve Atwater, S
Carl Banks, LB
Ronde Barber, CB
Tony Boselli, T
Isaac Bruce, WR
LeRoy Butler, S
Alan Faneca, G
Torry Holt, WR
Steve Hutchinson, G
Edgerrin James, RB
John Lynch, S
Clay Matthews, LB
Sam Mills, LB
Troy Polamalu, S
Simeon Rice, DE
Richard Seymour, DE
Steve Tasker, ST
Fred Taylor, RB
Zach Thomas, LB
Hines Ward, WR
Ricky Watters, RB
Reggie Wayne, WR
Patrick Willis, LB
Darren Woodson, S
Bryant Young, DT

If they choose 5 as the years before, these would be my picks (although I think that they will only choose Polamalu and Faneca or Hutchinson of the five):

Ronde Barber, CB
Alan Faneca, G
Steve Hutchinson, G
Troy Polamalu, S
Zach Thomas, LB
