Woodheads value is more of a passing down guy (routes, blocking). Teams three a lot less then and even less to RBs. He is not a between the tackles kind of guy. He would be good but don't think a HOFer
He would have kicked everyones arse. The two all-pro running backs from 1955 were 5'11" 180lbs and 6'1" 190 lbs. Welker weighed in at 186. He would have been the same size of all the running backs back then, but faster

If Woodhead were to have played in that era, then shouldn't we assume he would have been raised on that era's nutrition and workout regimes? Woodhead might have been playing at about 170lbs given his 5'8" height, and without the modern training he might not be quite so fast.
