No. We have multiple players in the NFL HOF including Dickerson, Berry and Gregg.

Money wise, yes.

Super Bowls, maybe (time will tell).

Overall, no.

Dickerson's name is all over the NFL record books.

Money is just due to the era he plays in. Our next successful NFL product will make more than him, that's just how it goes. When he is in the HOF, you can start to have this discussion.

Also - Emmanuel has peaked. He will never repeat the 2014 stats. Payton can make WRs look so good. The dumpster Fire QB situation in Denver will have Sanders below 1,000 yards this next year.

Avoid him in your Fantasy Football drafts. Draft the Bronco D and avoid the entire O.

Given the cutthroat way companies lay off people these days, I should negotiate a roster bonus and get them to replace my my Gym membership fees with a workout bonus.

He may be in the Top 20 greatest SMU players in the NFL-but not Top 10.. Michael Carter, Wes Hopkins, Ray Schonke are 3 more

Doak Walker is in the NFL Hall of Fame. Kyle Rote is on the Giants All Time Team.

I know he is in the NFL HOF; however, I always think of him as a college player. Not sure why.

Doak Walker only played 6 years in the NFL and still made Hall of Fame. Has any player ever achieved that? I kind of doubt it.

As soon as I posted-I thought of Gail Sayers but apparently he played 7 years but missed significant games due to injury

Doak-67 games
Sayers 68 games
