Junior Seau, Greatest Show on Turf among 26 HoF semifinalists

Pace , Kurt, Bruce should all be first ballot. Torry should too but I think it's asking a lot.

I thought if maybe we organized it by positions and then narrow down who the best ones are in each position it might help.

* means best a position in my opinion.

Honestly though, I think mostly everyone deserves to get in the Hall. I don't know how the committee selects just 5 players. Can't there be up to 8 enshrined in one class?

Walter Jones was 1st ballot so Pace better be 1st ballot as well.

The issue there though is who was Jones' competition? A 1st balloter with weaker competition is not necessarily better or more honored than a later inductee with stronger competition.
