Is Edelman a HOF Reciever (Recently just announced retirement) (1 Viewer)

[Pkessling]

Just don’t see it.

 

[Unreallutz]

If Edelman gets in, it will be because of all the publicity and notoriety of being part of all those Patriots teams, visibility matters.

Colston will never get in for the same reason.

I can't see him getting in if guys like Hines ward are not in.

 

[TheRealJRad]

As a QB, yes.

 

[los226]

No way

The biggest argument being made is his playoff performance. Which is impressive no doubt, especially considering a SB MVP. But when you're in the playoffs pretty much every single year due to being on Tom Brady and Belichick's Patriots team that kind of pads things a bit. The more I think about it the more ridiculous it seems.

 

[ItFan]

Yes. Not all the hall of famers are created equal.

Personally I don’t think so but I think he will be put in eventually. It’s like do you put Luc Longley in the hall of fame just because he won with Michael Jordan? Just a starting role player in a legendary situation.

On the flip side, he does has a SB MVP. Idc either way lol

 

[El Caliente]

While he was a real “bring your lunch pail to work” type player, with “sneaky athletic”, and “good fundamentals”, he will probably never be considered a HOF player.

But he sure was a gamer.

I'd normally agree with you, but we've seen weird things happen where the Patriots are involved...

Edelman has my HOF support simply for his soul crushing catch he had against the falcons.

I never knew how strongly I could cheer for a team I hate's success until the Patriots played the falcons in the super bowl.

 

[B4YOU]

No. He has only three 1,000+ yard seasons in 11 years and those were the only 16 game seasons for him. He has never had more than 7 receiving TDs in a season. There was no point in his career where anyone would have considered him a top 5 and maybe not top 10 in the league.

 

[Twyst]

No, I dont think he will get in. Its difficult to get in at any position, receiver seems to be ridiculously difficult

 

[onanygivensunday]

Patriots fans say "yes, definitely".

The vast majority of the rest of us say "no, no way".

Okay, then according to what you said, he's a HOF'amer.

 

[Saintfan in CO]

No. There shouldn't even be a discussion about this.
