dollars 2 donuts Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 (edited) I know we love him. I know other fans are envious of us having him. He is 31 and has made a few pro bowls, however, sometimes as an alternate. If we assume '14-'16 as quality years in his career, meaning he hopefully makes it to the pro bowl, what are the chances or what do you think the odds are of Kyle being an NFL Hall of Famer? EDIT: keeping in mind that as a 7 time pro-bowler and multiple year all-pro Fred Smerlas still isn't in and no longer appears ont he ballot, I believe.

boyst Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Smerlas may make it as one of the history players or whatever they are called. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dorkington Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 It's really going to depend on if we can make the playoffs while he's playing, I think. His peers respect him, always have, but playing for a loser probably taints things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 as a guy that penetrates, and only having 30 career sacks - probably not. hes not an elite rusher, and not an elite mountainous run stuffer... simply a good player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyHorseAteTheKid Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 HOF? Hell YES.... If he buys a ticket!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsxfirefighter Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I love the man and what he brings our team. However, no way is he a Hall of Famer. I can see a Wall of Famer, but not Hall. He brings serious work ethic, however he has only affected the out come of a few games and teams really do not game plan around him. He is going to be like Darrell Talley and Biscuit....teammates love them, opponents appreciated them, however they are just not the elite of the elite.

H2o Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 He's been a good player, but I don't think he has shown any kind of dominance to get a HOF induction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auburnbillsbacker Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 (edited) Kyle Williams has been one of the best DTs in the league his entire career. If he puts together 3 more great years he would be deserving of a spot in the Hall of Fame. Unfortunately, playing in Buffalo will keep him out. Obviously other Buffalo players have made it in recently, but they all played on a team that was a perennial winner. Kyle has never played in a playoff game. If coaches voted instead of members of the media he would be a lock. I have a simple question for those who do not believe he belongs in the Hall of Fame. What DT has been consistently better than Kyle the last 5 years? Guys like Suh have had great years but have also had disappointing years. Kyle Williams always plays at a high level.

DrDawkinstein Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 No, but he and Freddy may be the only players from the last decade that deserve to be on the Wall of Fame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragonborn10 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Let's remember he played on a Bills line that for the last half decade or more has been one of the worst run stopping units in history. Of ocurse it is not just him but he will not even get on the list of guys to consider. what does he do exceptionally? Get injured Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SageAgainstTheMachine Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 what does he do exceptionally? I honestly believe that he's the quickest defensive lineman off the snap, and he's rarely off sides to boot. That said, he's not a hall of famer unless the Bills win a couple super bowls. I don't know if it should work that way, but it does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle Williams always plays at a high level. the hall of fame isn't about who the best player at their position over 5 years is. It's about one of the best players at their position in the history of the game. Your smoking crack of you think he's one of the best to ever play the game.

LB3 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Right now? No. In three years after being a member of the three time defending Super Bowl champion Buffalo Bills? Oh yeah! Go Bills! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
