He will be the next Saint HoF.

2027 should be his year.

I don't think so. Numbers will be tight. Gronk and Peterson are locks next year. Belichick should've been in today. If he's not in next year it's because Kraft is going in and has convinced voters he didn't want to share the spotlight.

I think 2029 and 2030 it opens up for Jahri especially if Aaron Donald comes out of retirement and resets his clock. Fewer no doubt first ballot locks after 2028.

Besides Cam on the team, I'd say Tyson.


Are you talking about Taysom Hill? He definitely deserves to be in the Saints Ring of Honor, but he’s not making it to Canton.

Jordyn Tyson, if he stays healthy, could get there.

Cam will be a first ballot in 2032. (If he indeed retires after this season)

The league protects those 1st ballot spots, he checks a lot of the marks to be considered 1st ballot. I'm just not confident he gets it. By year 2 or 3, he will be there

quote:

It's criminal the Colston hasn't been nominated yet.

Less than 10k yards in a pass heavy league, ranked 64th in receiving yards and 47th in TDs. As much as we love him as Saints fans, they got this one right

quote:

Dom Davis will be a first ballot Hofer when he is eligible 2032 or later.

If he makes the HoF, he will have to wait awhile. His intelligence and leadership skills were his greatest attribute, and you can't see that in a stat box. And while he had a strong 5 year run from 2019 - 2023 (1 1st team All-Pro, 4 2nd teams, ONLY 2 Pro Bowls), he still was not considered one of the best LBers in the league.

Also, they need to stop using the Pro Bowl as a reason someone should or should not be considered HoF worthy. Demario was 1st team All-Pro in 2019, 2nd team in 2020 & 2021. Yet did not make the PB until 2022.

A 10 sack season would put him at #6 and he's #17 now. You could almost say that every sack he gets up to 10 will move him up one spot on the list. If he gets into the top 10, I would say he has to be a HOFer, because those stats are regardless of position. 2 of 3 ahead of him are DTs.


He's never had the huge year in terms of stats (particularly sacks when his best season was 15.5...good enough for T-85th all time). But his consistency and durability make him hard to exclude. With even just a decent season this year he should move into the top 10 in career sacks. He's was always one of the better 2-way DEs. Most remarkably, he's only missed two starts in his 15 year career

Cam is an absolute lock.

The only issue is whether his is first ballot or not.

The playoff flops, and in particular the no call, hurt the chances of some of our guys like cam and Demario Davis and Kamara.

If any one of them was a big player in a Super Bowl the narrative around them would be different.

Fair or unfair, Cam’s career is as good or better than Von miller’s. But Von miller has an iconic Super Bowl play that delivered a ring for Denver.
