Zac Martin retires

[Battlelyon]

One of the best ever to play. He's headed to Canton.

Him and Aaron Donald are going to be the only 1st ballot Hall of Famers from that 2014 draft.

I doubt it for a guard, tbh.

he'll be 1st ballot.

Bullshit

Bullshit

Hey, I am not a HOF voter. Don't blame me for their neurosis when it comes to that position. I don't like it either. They just sandbagged Kuechly from the HOF. Gates didn't get 1st ballot either. I wouldn't have it as a lock.

7 time ALL PRO just might get him in first ballot.
No other guard in the HOF has more All Pro seasons. Martin also ties Bob Lilly and Randy White team record with those 7 years All Pro.

degrading the position played for determining 1st ballot SHOULD be subjective....I guess.

I will be happy to be wrong. I will believe when I see it with a guard. Especially fresh off of how Antonio Gates and Luke Kuechly just this year

13 players in the history of this game had more All Pro seasons than 7. Aaron Donald (8) is the only one who played all his seasons in the 21st Century.

i hope we're both posting in another five years.

Great player. He’s a no brainer Hall of Famer.

I don’t know if it will be first ballot or any of that stuff but he’s clearly a Hall of Fame guy.

The whole first ballot thing is stupid. Anyone who votes against Martin is an idiot. It's not like he or anyone else will get better a year deeper into retirement.

 

[Lake Shore Drive]

Zack is a HOF shoo-in.

Not sure anyone disagrees.

7 time 1st team All Pro and 2 time 2nd team All Pro.. that is almost a full decade on All Pro team.

The could have ended up on the same team. The Rams tried to trade up for Martin at #17 in the 2014 Draft. The Cowboys were smart to pick him at #16.
