Current 49ers most likely to make Hall of Fame

niners420 · 2012-08-23T12:05:54-07:00

Obviously the far and away 2 most likely are Willis and Moss, but after that....who ya got?? I say if Justin Smith has another 3-4 years playing at or near his 2011 level and we win a SB or 2, he's got a real shot. The other more established guys with shots are Gore and Vernon. The youngsters I'd say that deserve an eye kept on them are Bowman, Aldon, ?? ... Obviously very premature, but who does your gut say?

correct me if im wrong, no punter or kicker have made the HOF

I would say Willis, J. Smith ... Aldon Smith (assuming consistant Production)

Vernon Davis could do it if he start putting up numbers he did 2 years ago consistantly.

Frank Gore if he plays 2-3 more years and maybe wins a ring or two.

Bowman (same as Aldon)

Mike Iupati too... if he continues growth and stays healthy

VD will break every TE record there is by the time hes done so i think he'll be in there. gore is great but there are just way too many backs who have done more. j Smith will make it if he plays a couple more years. Willis is the most sure fire one. moss was kind of a douche so maybe he gets the charles haley treatment.

No way Gore makes it he needs to puts up for the next 3 years 1800 yards + if somebody like L.T. is borderline HOF material with those numbers he put up i doubt Gore sniffs the HOF.....................unless we win 2 superbowls in the coming years that would help

I wont argue the Gore part, but LT is not borderline. He will be HOF.

Lock for sure.

If gore has 3 more 1000 yard seasons that would give him 8 / 11 1000 Yard seasons.

I think he needs to get more TDs... but I don't think its out of the question

Its too bad we will never know what kind of seasons/records Gore would have had if he want facing 8 man boxes for his entire career. Damn shame.

Id say right now the only players I feel extremely confident in that will be in the HOF are Randy Moss and Patrick Willis.
