I say easily Jason Taylor and Zach Thomas. Would Seau be considered a "Dolphin" at induction for his time here? Anyone else likely slipping my mind?
 
I don't think people go into the Hall of Fame as part of any team or of the sort, but their time with certain teams are looked at.
 
Are you talking NFL Hall of Fame, or Dolphin Hall of fame.

As of right now, I don't think we have anyone who will make the NFL hall of fame. Honestly look at the numbers. JT and Zach will go into the Dolphins hall of fame.

They do. Go to www.profootballhof.com and look at hall of famers by franchise. You'll notice that the players that are considered hall of famers for a franchise have their names highlighted, while other members that played for that team don't. They can also go in with multiple teams depending on how much of an impact they had. Example: Paul Warfield is in as a Brown and a Dolphin.

Keuch and Jake Scott should both be in the NFL Hall of Fame. :boohoo:
 
Keuch was a great G. I think he belongs in the Hall. But the problem is there is getting to be a group of guys who's numbers should put them in the hall. Keuch was an O-lineman, so it is hard to get his numbers recognized.

Jake Scott was a 5 time pro bowler. The first real #13 for our Dolphins. His numbers are still just sort of there. He was with the Redskins and hard to recall for true Dolphin fans who don't know the history.

Roman, I'm sure you agree. Now days, it is hard. Guys who should have been put in the hall of fame years ago will not. And the probably will never. It sucks to think that their are some guys who should be in the Hall will never be because how different the NFL is now from how it was years ago.

You're kidding right? Jason Taylor has 120 sacks. THATS Hall of Fame numbers. Andre Tippett (sp) got in the Hall because he had 100 career sacks and thats about it. If Tippett is a Hall of Famer, than Jason Taylor is too. And since we're on the subject Zach has a shot. If he wasn't a Dolphin (that seems to hurt more than help) he would be getting more looks from the media.
 
Imo Kooch belongs in the HOF but now he isn't a modern era candidate anymore, so it has gotten a bit more difficult for him..

JT and Zach belong there too and I think Jason will be in there but I am not so sure about Zach because he's so underrated and was never really a "big name"..
 
Zach Thomas was never underrated... and although he was a good (not great) LB he definitely will not make the NFL HOF

Jason Taylor has a chance... much more so than ZT, anyways.
 
Zach has more tackles than any linebacker in the Hall of Fame. There is no reason he shouldn't be in.
