Edge misses out on the Hall of Fame again

[DrSpaceman]

Wayne is a harder argument to make mostly because there are many Wrs with similar numbers and who will be competing with him.

Its actually the opposite of with Edge. The way the game is now, its unlikely many RBs under 30 anytime soon will approach 12000 rushing yards are as many as Edge has. Here is the career active rushing leaders right now :

After Adrian Peterson and Frank Gore, who I think we would all agree are :
HOFers as well and
Near the end of their careers.

It drops WAY off. Outside of McCoy in the next few years (he is 30, needs 1500 yards more) and then a good 5+ years off maybe Leveon Bell, if he finds a new team, and Todd Gurley, in another 6 years maybe, the likelihood any of these guys get to 12000 yards is low. Bell and Gurley are not even halfway to 12000
