One of the greatest athletes ever to come out of Fresno State, Henry Ellard was used as both a Wide Receiver and Punt Returner in his first few seasons in the NFL. Ellard was still catching his fair share of passes, but he was good enough as a Punt Returner to be named a First Team All-Pro and a Pro Bowl in 1984. Ellard would go on a tear where from 1988 to 1991 he would exceed 1,000 Receiving Yards, the first of which saw him lead the National Football League with 1,414 Yards and he was named a First Team All-Pro again. The Wide Receiver would finish fourth and second in Receiving Yards the next two seasons and overall as a Los Angeles Ram he totaled 9,761 Yards from the air.

Tucker can make a claim as the best Kicker in the NFL over the past ten years, but Place Kickers always face an uphill climb for the Hall. That being said, Tucker was named the 2010s All-Decade Team player, and his five First Team All-Pros could be added to in the future. With a powerful Ravens team, he might get a chance to use his leg to gain a second Super Bowl, and he got his signature moment last year by setting the longest Field Goal record with a 66-Yard cannon. He will be our highest ranked Special Teams player until he retires.

Punters face a long road to Canton but if any current one could get there it is Hekker, who was a First Team All-Pro three years in a row from 2015 to 2017. He was also named to the 2010s All-Decade Team.
