The Hall of Fame committee will select 25 Semi-Finalists in November. One has already been decided, Senior Nominee, Mick Tingelhoff. The former Minnesota Viking will automatically be named as one of the 15 Finalists.
So, if we were to guess which 25 will advance to the next round (and that is what we do here) we would suggest that the following are most likely to be selected this fall. Please note that this is not necessarily whom we want to see chosen, but whom we think will be selected.
QB: Kurt Warner
WR: Tim Brown
WR: Isaac Bruce
WR: Marvin Harrison
WR: Torry Holt
RB: Jerome Bettis
RB: Roger Craig
RB: Terrell Davis
RB: Edgerrin James
OL: Joe Jacoby
OL: Kevin Mawae
OL: Orlando Pace
OL: Will Shields
OL: Steve Wisniewski
DL: Charles Haley
LB: Kevin Greene
LB: Karl Mecklenburg
LB: Junior Seau
DB: Steve Atwater
DB: John Lynch
ST: Steve Tasker
PK: Morten Andersen
HC: Don Coryell
HC: Bill Cowher
HC: Tony Dungy
Is this the 25 that you think will make the next round? We would love to hear your thoughts as to whether you agree or disagree with the 25 we think will be Pro Football Hall of Fame Semi-Finalists this year.
