As of this writing, Todd Heap has the most Receiving Touchdowns in Ravens history and is considered to be the best Tight End ever to wear a Batimore uniform. Heap was not part of any of the Ravens Super Bowl wins, but was a major offensive threat and a crowd favorite, especially during times when there was not as much to cheer about.  Heap accumulated 41 TDs and 5,492 Receiving Yards for the Ravens.

It is always onward and upward for us at Notinhalloffame.com, and as such we wanted to take the time to update our Football Futures section.  This is the portion of the website where you have the opportunity to let us know your opinion as whether retired players who are not yet eligible for the Pro Football Hall of Fame should be enshrined in Canton.  This process also helps us establish where these players should be ranked once eligible.

We already had the Football Futures from 2016, 2017 and 2018 up, and recently we have updated our 2017 Football Futures Section. 

Next, of course will be the following year as we are updating the 2018 Football Futures Section.
