Now obviously this doesn't mean much because well the HOF voters hate the Broncos but quite a few Bronco players did make the final 26 player list.

1) Steve Atwater--Seems to keep making it to this point but can't get any further.
2) Terrell Davis--Probably going to be the first man to miss just making it.
3) Brian Dawkins--Wish he would come back and do some coaching for us
4) Ty Law--Played for the Broncos I guess one season. I don't remember him playing for us though for some odd reason.
5) John Lynch--Almost made it last time so maybe gets in this year.
6) Karl Mecklenburg--Man this guy should have been in a long time ago!

If TD doesn't get in this year, next year will be extremely tough. Next year, these guys will be eligible:
Ray Lewis
Randy Moss
Steve Hutchinson
Brian Urlacher
Ronde Barber
Jeff Saturday
Richard Seymour

You have to figure Lewis is getting in next year, and I think Hutchinson will, too. Moss will unless voters decide to make him wait a year like TO. The other guys all might have to wait, except maybe Urlacher because he was good and voters love the Bears.

Yeah I would say if he doesn't get in this year he might have to wait until he is eligible for the Senior Committee vote.

Yeah, sadly I feel like TD is going to wait a long time. Hope I am wrong. Just not enough years.

@cdumler7 forgetting Ty Law was on Denver is something I figured SpringStein or Mingo would do, not you. ;)

He wore #26 and he was signed like halfway though the season. Law was very good but he sorta lingered his last two years.

Well those seasons were during my college years when I didn't have cable tv so didn't get to actually watch much of the Broncos.

Ty Law - played for the Broncos? ;)

Terrell Davis either makes it this year or waits for the Senior committee - I think he is 50/50 for this year.

I don't want to be political, but if Trump can be president - surely Terrell Davis can be in the HOF.

The senior committee needs to get their butts in gear and install Randy Gradishar before even considering Davis should he miss his chance.

Since Randy Gradishar was my favorite Bronco growing up - it does boggle my mind that he is not in the HOF.

Atwater not in like I say every year is a joke. The resume doesn't lie. Just saying. Peace.

I really liked Andrew Mason's idea. Every 10 years have 17 nominees make it in. That was the size of the first HOF class. This would help a lot with all the backlog that has happened. If they let things continue like they have it is just going to get deeper and deeper making it almost impossible for anybody like Randy or Terrell to get in even fi they are deserving.

That might help ..

Because there is plenty Broncos the were the best at there positions for several years not getting sniffs at HOF .

Rod Smith is worthy of HOF yet not even talk of the Guy .
