Nevertheless, here's what Bill Belichick said about CY: "He's pretty special...in the same general category as LT." That is probably the highest praise CY could ever hope to get from BB! That tells me that the Skins should draft CY at #2.

Since I mentioned LT, I can't let this post go without reiterating that the HOF voters' shunning of Joe Jacoby was a disgrace. The voters should have given more weight to the fact that the great LT said Big Jake was the OT that gave him the most trouble in his career. Joe Jacoby was a great player, too.
The HOF has basically become the Hall of Really Good. It's more about politics and popularity.

As for Jacoby, how does Jim Covert get in the HOF over Jacoby? That to me makes zero sense and is a total disgrace.

I have said this numerous times but they MUST get the media people out of the voting. You can not have media voting on it. It should be made up of former players and coaches. PERIOD.
