Have any "modern day" FBs made it, I don't recall. In year gone by the FB was the primary ballcarrier ala Jimmy Taylor, Jim Brown, etc. Now they are primarily backfield blockers with a few exceptions. Good question, Henderson is one of my favorite all time Packers, but I don't see him in the HOF. It would be great if I'm wrong.

One of the worst injustices is Jerry Kramer. He was an All Pro and a Pro Bowler a number of times and also kicked field goals. He was voted on the All Time 50th Anniversay team, as one of the 2 best guards. And he's not in. Crazy. Stupid. Idiotic.

Now I'm done ranting.
Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

I totally agree. Like they say, it ought to have something to do with the fact that nearly the entire team is in the HoF already and that he's a guard. Not the most spectacular position.

Still, those aren't valid reasons in my eyes.

Woodson, Jennings(future HOF), and maybe Driver.

Driver isn't a statistical Hall of famer. But in my eyes hes a hall of famer.

No. If I'm not mistaken, John Riggins is probably the last FB to make it, but he wasn't a modern FB. He actually ran with the football.

And agreed about Kramer.

Zero2Cool (15h) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!
earthquake (19h) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage
beast (22h) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position
dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.
dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.
Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl
Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.
dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left
dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out

dfosterf (28-Apr) : Bowden long snapper Wisconsin. Consensus best LS in college.
dfosterf (28-Apr) : We got Peter Bowde
dfosterf (28-Apr) : I personally interpret that as a partial tear that can be recovered from with rehab
dfosterf (28-Apr) : MLF said Kingsley Enagbare did NOT tear his ACL and did NOT require surgery, and that he is "looking good" for the 2024 season!

Mucky Tundra (28-Apr) : damn those vikings

TheKanataThrilla (27-Apr) : Interesting draft. A bit shocked that we didn't select an early CB. Definitely have Safety help. Pretty happy overall.
dhazer (27-Apr) : wow the last 2 picks are really stupid and probably will be special teams players Top 10 draft pick next year book it
TheKanataThrilla (27-Apr) : I think he ended up with a terrible RAS score
