    Jack Butler, Dermontii Dawson, Chris Doleman, Cortez Kennedy, Curtis Martin and Willie Roaf were voted in

    Dermontti Dawson: Center - Pittsburgh Steelers

    Dawson played 184 games and started 181 games in his NFL career, playing his entire professional career with the Pittsburgh Steelers. In his time in the NFL, Dawson was a seven-time Pro Bowl selection and a six-time All-Pro selection.

    Chris Doleman: Defensive End - Minnesota Vikings, Atlanta Falcons, San Fransisco 49ers

    Doleman played the vast majority of his career with the Minnesota Vikings and retired with 150.5 sacks, then the fourth-highest career total. Doleman went to the Pro Bowl eight times and was named to the NFL All-Decade team for the 1990s.

    Cortez Kennedy: Defensive Tackle - Seattle Seahawks

    Though nose tackles are not usually on the field for their pass-rushing ability, Kennedy regularly recorded massive sack totals from the position. Playing his entire career with the Seahawks, Kennedy recorded 58 sacks as a pro and went to eight Pro Bowls.

    Curtis Martin: Running Back - New England Patriots, New York Jets

    A five-time Pro Bowl and All-Pro selection, Martin retired from football in 2005 as the fourth-leading rusher in NFL history, amassing over 14,000 yards on the ground in his career. Martin appeared in one Super Bowl and was also a recipient of the Ed Block Courage Award.

    Willie Roaf: Offensive Tackle - New Orleans Saints, Kansas City Chiefs

    Roaf was somehow not a first-ballot selection, but has finally been rightfully enshrined on his second try. Roaf was one of the most dominant left tackles in NFL history and made 189 starts in his career. He was an 11-time Pro Bowl and six-time All-Pro selection, and was named to the All-Decade teams for the 1990s and 2000s.

    Jack Butler: Cornerback - Pittsburgh Steelers

    The lone veterans' committee inductee in 2012, Butler played for nine seasons with the Pittsburgh Steelers, was selected to four Pro Bowls and was first-team All Pro on three occasions

    Lot more obscure names than last year's class...though i don't know will there ever be a year like last year with Richard Dent, Marshall Faulk, Shannon Sharpe and Deion getting in! Nice to see Curtis Martin get in but the Bus should have got in along with him tbh
