Steve Smith HoF is he in or out?

Hope he gets in. I think he is a top 3 receiver all-time, if not the best. A part of me always wanted to “free” him to a team with a real OC, a real coach and a real QB. He was stuck playing John fox ball with an erratic Jake Delhomme. I loved Watching him in a panther uni but he would have made Philly a super bowl dynasty and would have done even more on any team that wasn’t so regularly inept. Even late in his career, he would have been an elite wr if he had signed with New England. 
If anyone questions his merit, just go ask the defensive backs that he faced.  Go watch that 2005 playoff game against Chicago’s highly revered defense. They had no answer and no chance.

The better question will be, does he go in as a Panther? Answer, Yes and Yes.

The NFL Hall of Fame does not induct players in as playing for a specific team. They are listed with all the teams they played for. 

Currently the Panthers in the Hall of Fame are Kevin Greene, Reggie White, and Bill Polian.

You don’t pick a team for the NFL HoF. You are in and the team you played for are listed on the summary under your bust. 

Seems to me I remember something about that, old age caught up to me. I think it stemmed from Sam Mills conversation, if he were elected would he go in as a Saint? Peppers definitely goes in first ballot as a Panther.

At some point WRs are going to have some real issues getting in....log jam is going to get really bad in about 8-10 more years.   89’s numbers won’t be nearly as impressive 10 years from now.    Lot of guys that won’t get in will soon start to catch up with guys who are in.   The guys who played their entire careers in the passing era or going to skew things.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
