With the recent retirement of New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman, the talk around him has immediately shifted to whether or not he should go into the Hall of Fame.

It’s an interesting debate. Edelman spent 12 seasons in the NFL, all with the same team. He went from an undersized quarterback drafted in the seventh round to a do-it-all player who became one of the hardest workers of his generation.

Though the Patriots asked him to do a little bit of everything, Edelman settled in nicely as a wide receiver and his 620 career receptions rank No.
