At least this gentleman thinks so. He believes a full class will get inducted next year. However says only 2 are sure-fire. Favre and T.O.
He goes on to list the top 10 he thinks will be selected and yes Boselli makes his cut.

Thoughts......................
I hope Terrell Owens never gets in the HOF. Most people are going to remember him for his behavior issues more than how he played. Yes, Owens was a good player and other bad guys are in the HOF, but he is the only guy I had ever heard of being paid not to play because his criticism of teammates made the team want to suspend him longer than the allowed four weeks. Every time he was cut, many people wanted to know which team would want a "locker room cancer." Who is going to remember him for his play on the field after the Eagles fiasco? Not me for sure, or anyone who likes Philadelphia.
Tony Boselli, on the other paw, has been named as a potential nominee in the past, but never made it to the final round. Like all Jaguars fans I think he deserves to get in the HOF someday because he was one of the best players we ever had. He played like a #2 overall pick after being the first college draft selection in team history. I think the only knock on him is the length of his career, which is ridiculous because Jim Brown also retired early. Give me a break; #71 was the best left tackle during his career and as tough as nails. He was a natural leader and, unlike Owens, a very nice guy off the field.

TO's bad attitude should not have any hinderance of home getting into the HOF.

1. Owens is one of the best receivers to play the game. No way around that. He deserves at the very least strong consideration, whether he was a jerk or not.
2. I was not aware that you were a cat.
TO deserves to be a Hall of Famer as he was one of the best WRs in the history of the sport. He had a bad attitude? Who cares.
Boselli also deserves the same. He was one of the best pass protectors this game has ever seen. He should already be a Hall of Famer.
Well you're not going to like what you see when this year's inductees are announced because I hate to tell ya...Owens is a lock.
