Usually, Punters don’t have much of a Hall of Fame shot. It is a good thing for
Deron Cherry that he focused on being a Safety. It is a better thing for the Kansas City Chiefs as Cherry became one of the best at that position.
Using his athletic gifts, Deron Cherry emerged as a top defensive star in the NFL. Once he became a star, he was among the league's most consistent players. Although he never led the league in interceptions, Cherry was a very good open-field tackler and was rarely beat one on one. For his efforts, Cherry was a six-time Pro Bowl Selection and was named to the NFL All-Decade Team for the 1980s.
Although Cherry did have many picks, he was never really close to leading the league in this sexy statistic. Had he done so, is it possible that he might have at least been a Finalist once or twice?
