Jon Morris had a very long career in professional football with a lot of accolades. Is he being overlooked for the Hall of the Very Good?

Thanks.

Barkum and Caster were both premium NY draft selections from Jackson State in the early 1970's and both played for over a decade. I think Caster's last game was in the Rose Bowl - victory in Super Bowl 17 with the Redskins. Both very good receivers.

Joel Collier coached with the Boston Patriots in 1960 and stopped coaching after the 1992 season (also with the Patriots). Can anyone think of an AFL coach in 1960 who had a longer run?

Thank you.

Many know Carroll Hardy as the only man to pinch hit for Ted Williams, but it seems like his work as Head of College Scouting with the Denver Broncos beginning in 1970 is overlooked?

I am curious what people think about the Hall of the Very Good candidacy for former Packer linebacker John Anderson. Although he did not earn any All-Pro honors, he was second team all Decade linebacker for the 1980's and played at a very high level for a very long time. Wondering what people think....

Agreed on Calvin Hill. He carried the ball in three decades, no small feat. I think a pretty good running back.

Most would agree Emmitt Smith and Tony Dorsett are the two best running backs the Cowboys have ever had, but who is in the third slot? Don Perkins? Ezekiel Elliott? Calvin Hill? I think it's Don Perkins, but am curious what others think.

Thanks.

Curious on what people think about the Hall of Very Good candidacy for these three defensive linemen:

Fred Miller

Ordell Braase

Billy Ray Smith
