Don't discount Darren Woodson's ESPN ties when weighing HOF chances

News that the Cowboys all-time leading tackler will be inducted into the Ring of Honor when the team hosts the Seattle Seahawks on Nov. 1 has kick-started a campaign to get the safety into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

It won’t hurt that Woodson was always one of the most pleasant and conscientious interviewees in the locker room and remains an all-time favorite among the Dallas-Fort Worth media. You can be sure he similarly charmed media members across the country, included in the Hall of Fame electorate.

And in addition to his resume as a player, which includes three Super Bowl rings, don’t discount the importance of Woodson’s presence as an ESPN analyst.
