Tony Boselli
LeRoy Butler

If Sam Mills doesn't have any more eligibility left, I'd put him in over Calvin Johnson.

I don't think Butler has a chance, after not even being top 10 last year. But as the only all 90s decade team to not be in... and one of the few that have completed (I can't remember quite, but I think) the 20/20 club (20 INTs and 20 Sacks) he needs to go in at some point.

If I was out putting in 5 without doing any research at all, I'd keep it simple and put in

Peyton Manning
Charles Woodson

LeRoy Butler
Reggie Wayne

And have the Packers and Colts in the Hall Of Fame Preseason Game 😛 sure that's a horrible way to do it, but I said no research lol

And I was looking for someone that was great for a decade, so many of those careers were shorter than I thought... except

Clay Matthews Jr.... 18 years. Though, honestly he's probably not in the top 5 either. But I was just surprised a lot of the guys careers were less than a decade, or I thought they dropped off before a decade.

Like everyone, no research.
Let's go with
LeRoy Butler
Calvin Johnson
Peyton Manning
Charles Woodson

Add Jared Allen. He was sure a thorn in the side of the Packers for so many years. Then again John Lynch was a decent player too when he was with Tampa.

I'm sure Wayne will get a lot of votes.
Boselli didn't play long enough for me to take him as a serious contender. Even Johnson is right at the edge of acceptability.

I am surprised Woodson is not coaching. He has a lot to offer and I think he would find it fulfilling

Studio jobs are cushy jobs, but at some point, you want back into the action
