No one disputes how good of a player MJD was.  I think it's more about the RoH itself and how people think of it.  One way to think about it, is that it's a rarefied honor in the extreme, open to a select few.  But maybe it's open to any very good or great player who played a good chunk of his career for the Jags.  This would make perfect sense, since Brunell's falls into the latter category.

 

For myself, I'd be happy if there were perhaps a half dozen players or less over the course of the first 50 years of the franchise.  

 

But since Brunell *is* in there, MJD definitely should go into because they were in the same kind of hemisphere in terms of ability at their positions.  The thing is, if those guys go, you also have to consider guys like Kevin Hardy,Tony Brackens, Meester, JSmooth, McCardel, Kyle Brady, etc.  You could make arguments for any of them and probably a few others and so the RoH starts to get crowded pretty quickly.
