Why not Torry?

I think Torry has to wait for a while. Brown and Carter were in the top 5 in receptions and it took them a while to get into the Hall. Now you have Terrell Owens, Andre Johnson, Hines Ward, Bruce, and Wayne, ahead of him. That doesn't even mention other players who have more yards than he does (Owens, Moss, Harrison, Ellard). He is currently rated 13th in yards, and I think these new age receivers will be putting up mad numbers in the future. If the Hall takes one receiver a year for the next 8 years, I predict he will not be one of them. I believe Moss, Owens, Bruce, Harrison, Wayne, Ward, Steve Smith, Fitzgerald all get in before Torry. He's our version of Andre Reed. He gets in, but only after a long wait.

Johnson is still playing. Wayne is hoping to play this year. So; Holt has his shot before those 2.

I was anticipating some retirements and I don't think Torry is in the top 5 of the group eligible in the next few years with retirements and those who will come up soon (Moss, Owens). For me he is behind those two, Issac and Marvin at a minimum. Also, I assumed 1 WR added each year. If the HOF puts in two WRs in a year or none, perhaps Torry get in sooner. I hope I am wrong and all GSOT legends get in early.
