We Seattle fans think so, and know how he played. Two things work against him. Playing in Seattle, he didn't get the national recognition that Lott got in San Fran. And, his career was far, far too short.IndyHawk":2mpw4jfk said:He deserved to be in long ago..Better now than never I guess

I still hope he gets in, but it seems like long odds to me.
To be eligible to be nominated by the Seniors Committee, a player has to have been out of the NFL for at least 25 years. The good news for Easley is that every senior member who's been nominated since 2009 has eventually earned induction into the Hall.
