There are several players who deserve this. Jurgenson, Riggins, and Darrell Green have also distinguished themselves in a manner befitting this honor. Indeed, their numbers are all "unofficially" retired -they haven't been issued to new players. The difference is, those players have either been inducted, or will be.
Art Monk has been slighted for years now. Football's greatest individual honor has been denied him by prejudicial voters. What the Redskins can do is offer their highest honor to him. And they can do it now.

There absolute must be a strong push of some sort, motivated, by the fans to get Art Monk into the Hall. Or better yet, retire his number.
I mean, we spend countless hours here petitioning our opinions, one way or another. Let's petition something that every true Redskins fan will get behind.
