Is Derrick Brooks a first ballot HoFer? I say yes. Urlacher, I think, is pretty much on the same level as him and hasn't put in as many years as Brooks did but he's getting close. Urlacher's a lock to get in eventually and I think he'll be a near-lock first ballot guy by the time he retires.
Lewis still comes up in those conversations and I think he's slightly more recognizable than Urlacher. Agreed about Urlacher being in the Hall of Fame already.
Are you serious? The other one is Urlacher. Ah yeah. It's obviously Urlacher in the first frame but I didn't really look at him because Cutler is being wailed on. Couldn't tell it was him when the head changes to the 2nd pic.
I remember in 1999 Couch, McNabb, Akili Smith, Culpepper, and McNown (FUUUUUUUUUUUUUU) all went in the first half of the first round. So is #1 one of them?
it's like that everywhere, though. Also, you can't read that Barnwell column and objectively say the guy was giving an honest, sober analysis of the game. He got poked on twitter by Bears fans that were berating him and he clearly wrote the column in that frame of mind. It's clear as [expletive] day.
