If you start putting fan favorites in there then why not put Joey Z or The Mangler in there? Personally, I don't think Mark Brunell should have been there either because although he was a good guy and a very good player, he wasn't an NFL elite player at his position like the other guys.

Yeah ok. Mark Brunell took us to 2 AFC title games. He made the Pro Bowl multiple years. He won MVP in Hawaii. He threw for 4200 yards which led the NFL. Brunell was an elite Jaguar.

If I controlled who was in the Pride, being a Pro-Bowler or having a great year or two wouldn't be enough. In my opinion, you should be the best of the best, with a player or so a decade getting in there. That makes it a really special and unusual honor if you do. 

On the other hand, if you throw all the random pro-bowlers we've had, where do you stop? Kevin Hardy? Rashean Mathis? MJD? Leon Searcy? Montell Owens?  Next thing you know, you have 30 players in it and people can't even remember who they all are and it's meaningless. I have to believe that's not the intent.
