Talk of Fame's Senior Draft

For those interested, there is currently a senior's draft going on at the Talk of Fame. It is a fun exercise where five historians (Jeffrey Miller, Andy Piascik, John Turney, Chris Willis and myself) draft players who we feel should be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Round 1: https://www.si.com/nfl/talkoffame/nfl/h ... ians-draft
Rounds 2-3: https://www.si.com/nfl/talkoffame/nfl/w ... ians-draft
Rounds 4-7: https://www.si.com/nfl/talkoffame/nfl/h ... nior-draft

Just some fun for the off-season.

What do you think T&S ... Some of these super-seniors will finally get their chance in the next three years ? Or will it be players from 1970 on ?
