New England Patriots: 3 current players who should be first ballot hall of famers
By Sam Minton
Julien Edelman
Julien Edelman’s road to the hall of fame just got a little bit trickier. With Edelman being suspended, his road to the hall of fame will have some added difficulty. His PED suspension will follow him throughout the rest of his career.
Still, I think Edelman will be a first ballot hall of famer. Edelman has been a part of some special moments. His catch in the Patriots last Super Bowl victory will be remembered forever. It still seems impossible that Edelman was able to bring it in.
Edelman is entering his 9th season and has 425 catches for 4,540 yards and 24 touchdowns. I think Edelman will outlast Tom Brady and Gronkowski, and boost his career numbers. Also I think when Edelman returns in 2018 it will be with a bang.
Edelman is one of the best slot receivers to play the game. If he is able to improve his career totals he will be an easy choice to make the hall of fame when his time comes.
New England Patriots fans are witnessing greatness. Every Sunday you get to see NFL legends in their prime. No wonder the Patriots always manage to make it back to the Super Bowl.
