He was a good punt returner, but only 3 career TDs. I don't know how you can justify him over Sharpe, Carter, or even Andre Reed.
1) Derrick Thomas .......during his playing career was second only to Lawrence Taylor........some even say better.(no)
2) Remeber Bob hayes played at a different time and the game was different but his induction is past due,his value to the Cowboys was un measurable and he was one of the mains reasons for the Cowboys success.Noone deserves it more,players like Hayes don't get the regonition they deserve for making the NFL what it is today.
