Who will find themselves in Canton?
The Pittsburgh Steelers have had a plethora of all-time talents over the last three decades, and six of them have earned nominations for enshrinement into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Wide receiver Hines Ward retired with 1,000 receptions and over 12,0000 receiving yards with 85 touchdowns. Ward has found himself in this exact spot multiple times, but has yet to earn a gold jacket. Maybe 2025 will be the year.
Nose tackle Casey Hampton was a five-time Pro Bowler and helped the Steelers win two Super Bowls over a 12-year career.
Gary Anderson is one of the best kickers of all time, ranking third in points scored behind Morten Anderson and Adam Vinatieri.
Mike Vrabel won three Super Bowls with the Patriots, but spent the first four seasons of his career with the Steelers. I would be intrigued to see if he acknowledges the Steelers if and when he goes into the Hall of Fame.
James Farrior may be the most underrated Steeler of all time. He signed with the Steelers in 2002 after five seasons with the New York Jets and immediately became the heart of the defense. He was a two-time Pro Bowler and an All-Pro in 2004. He helped the Steelers make it to three Super Bowls and win two over a terrific 15 year career.
