2022 Hall of Fame Finalists Announced
NFL Week 17 - The Pro Football Hall of Fame announced its 15 2022 finalists on Thursday afternoon. Here's a thread to discuss who will be the five players selected to enter Canton. The 2022 finalists are:
WR Torry Holt
WR Andre Johnson
WR Reggie Wayne
OT Willie Anderson
OT Tony Boselli
DE/DT Richard Seymour
DE/DT Bryant Young
DE Jared Allen
OLB DeMarcus Ware
MLB Sam Mills
MLB Zach Thomas
MLB Patrick Willis
CB Ronde Barber
SAF LeRoy Butler
PR/KR Devin Hester
I'm very surprised that Steve Smith did not make it to the finalist round in his first year of eligibility. I would gladly put Steve Smith into the Hall of Fame ahead of Devin Hester.
