roaf and shields... if 11 time pro bowlers don't get in, then who does?

brady
manning (if he wins one)
lewis
gates
moss (randy - if he can get back on track)

Gates probably will be a HOFer one day, but if his career ended today with only 3 yrs in the NFL, would he really be first ballot? I don't think so.
