Devin Hester changed the game and on that alone he should be in the hall. A special pool for players who get their own rules.
And then Hester should get in again for his play

For some reason seeing twitter buzz that Devin Hester is going to be elected. Which, fine, good for him, not against his induction, but I'm gonna be so annoyed when Torry Holt *doesn't* make it, because, sorry, Hester was objectively less valuable! It's the same issue baseball has with relief pitchers and Hall of Fame voting.

Nah, of all the names I've heard this year so far Hester is the most valuable.

The Hall of Fame used to mean being the very best at your position for a long time but now it means being famous which results in the 1.0th best returner of all time getting in while people ignore that Dante Hall made people talk about special teams well before Hester. You only need two good seasons and a super bowl highlight now. Grats all the mediocre guys out there and ty Hester for for sure securing Eli's place.

You forgot a decimal, don't worry I fixed it.

drat Hester got the bears an extra 3 yards of average punt distance in his entire career. What a game changer. Truly striking fear in the hearts of teams across the NFL.
Are you including kickoffs out of bounds?
And cutting the stats to pre and post kickoff rule change

OL in general doesn't get the greatest attention on the first ballot. Yanda, Jahri Evans, and Brandon Brooks were probably the best of this era but they'll prob get snubbed for a bit.

Actually a team has five linemen and each one of them aspires to be a tight end so much they report as one a few times a game.
Therefore, like how returners are just bad receivers no o lineman can ever be eligible for the hall
