Ward, Faneca, Troy are in the top 25 for the 2020 class.

Faneca should've been in already, arguably the best OG ever to play the game. Now Troy has to be a 1st ballot guy, there's never been a safety that was equally great at playing at or behind the LOS and downfield in the passing game like Troy was.

I can't see them putting two Steelers in during the same class.

Ward I think should get in at some point, looking at the era he played in and with the QB's he had to play with, he was almost 30 before he ever got to play with a franchise QB and the passing era started when he was near the end of his career.
 
Troy has the best chance of the three for 2020. Faneca should get in Someone help Ed this year with his pitch.
 
Faneca not being in the HOF is a crime. Troy will get in, no doubt. None. Ward, maybe someday. Unfortunately, people have short memories for guys like Ward. Just a hard hat, blue collar guy that came to work every day and kicked ***. Had a pretty damn good career, and defenders were afraid of him.
 
All 3 should go! Throw in L.C.Greenwood&Donnie Shell to round it out. I pull for those guys every year. They're long overdue.

Hey a fan can dream.

Click to expand...

Guards and Centers always get a bum rap when it comes to the HOF... they always take time... Wrs too but mostly just because they are so backlogged at that spot... look at how long it took Swann and Stallworth to get in...

It also cannot help that Wards best accomplishments came as a total football player... Ed should get Bettis to push for him cause how many extra yards did ward earn him? Maybe show a compilation of the Kordell and Maddox era passes he had to catch....

Troy better be a first ballot guy...
