Randy Gradishar

Another tackling machine from the Orange Crush days, Randy Gradishar was one of the big time play makers of the Denver Broncos defense. He recorded over 2,000 tackles in his career. He also added 20 interceptions, four of which were returned for touchdowns.

For a linebacker, those are some really great numbers. Dare I say they are Hall of Fame numbers. But is Gradishar in the Hall of Fame? Sadly he has yet to get there. But like Mechlenburg, there is a chance he could get in under the senior portion of the ballot.

It is equally a crime that Randy Gradishar has not been paid his respects with an induction to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Crossing our fingers that this does happen soon.
