He averaged 85 catches, 1162 yards, and over 9 TDs per season. I'd guess those numbers stack up very favorably against anyone else's in the Hall.

Yes, he had a great short career. I think time is not on his side. As you say, there is a log jam that is only growing. He just doesn't make the cut at his position. Now, if you make him a running back with those numbers - I would be arguing the other way.
Edit:
I just saw this video on the HOF website and thought it fit with our comparison of short careers:
