There were a few players that I wanted to point out before we jump into the list. Some of these players are still too young to speak about with any sort of confidence. Others made the honorable mention list because of legal troubles, but still have potential to become Hall of Fame worthy. Some players are just a couple dominant years away from cracking the top 25 of this list at some point. For the sake of remaining somewhat level-headed I didn’t include any rookies in this list.
Honorable Mention:
14. Paul Worrilow, LB – Atlanta
13. Giovani Bernard, RB – Cincinnati
12. Eddie Lacy, RB – Green Bay
11. Antonio Brown, WR – Pittsburgh
10. Trent Williams, OT – Washington
9. Julio Jones, WR – Atlanta
8. Tyron Smith, OT – Dallas
7. Andy Dalton, QB – Cincinnati
6. Aldon Smith, DE – San Francisco
5. Josh Gordon, WR – Cleveland
4. Matthew Stafford, QB – Detroit
3. Tashaun Gipson, S – Cleveland
2. NaVorro Bowman – LB – San Francisco
1. DeMarco Murray, RB – Dallas
Without further ado I present to you the top 25 NFL players age 27 or under with the best chance at making it into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
