Jimmy Smith was a great Wide Receiver, but is he truly one of the elite, or is he just one of many in an inflated offensive age of Football?  The answer to that question will determine whether he will get into the Hall of Fame.

Jimmy Smith may have accrued two Super Bowl Rings with Dallas, but he was basically a bust there as major injuries prevented him from being in the lineup for the bulk of his stint there.  After being released by the Cowboys, his career was resurrected in Jacksonville, where he became one of the top wideouts in the game.  Smith would catch for 1,000 yards nine times and twice top the 100-catch mark.  Nobody can argue that those totals were not impressive (as they most certainly were), but a lot of other players were doing the same thing, and Smith never made a First Team All-Pro Team. 

Jimmy Smith was very good for a long time, but sadly, if there is an eligible player with impressive stats who could be dismissed easily, it could be Jimmy Smith.  We will find out very soon what the initial verdict will be.

Torry Holt's ranking was a challenging task, and it's understandable that opinions may vary on where he should be placed. However, we value your input and would like to hear your thoughts. While Holt's stats may not be better than those of his peers in the Wide Receiver position, he was the most consistent performer in the NFL during the 2000s. Holt played for the Rams for all but one season, catching 920 passes for 13,382 yards. He led the NFL in Receiving Yards twice and was a favorite target of Kurt Warner, the star Quarterback.

He was selected to the Pro Bowl seven times and ranked in the top ten in receiving yards eight times over his eleven-year career. Additionally, Holt was the youngest receiver to reach 10,000 and 11,000 yards, and if he had played for another year or two, his career stats would have been impossible to ignore. We are eager to see what the Football Hall of Fame will do with Torry Holt, especially now that Isaac Bruce has been inducted. It's likely that Holt will soon follow suit, though he has been waiting a while. Holt might be used to that, as he has lived in the shadow of others for years.
