12 TD is insane for a defensive player

Wow, that's almost as many interceptions and pro bowls as Deron Cherry.

Keep in mind the difference between a pro bowl and all pro. All pro is the best at your position, pro bowls is the best 4-5 at your position. Zach Thomas was the best at his position for 5 years and runner up another 2 times (he has 1 more all pro award than Mills). Only Cleveland's Thomas of the finalists has more all pro awards. Zach has to get in this time.

This is just my opinion, but I think part of it has to do with how visible was the player at the time. If you played for a franchise that was always going to the playoffs, always on primetime, then you just had more eyeballs on you and the voters would remember these guys like Cherry or Otis. Especially before cable, ESPN, etc. But if you played for a franchise that almost never got primetime games, especially when it was just MNF, never got into the playoffs, then you get overlooked, simply because a lot fewer people were watching you play.

Torry should have been in years ago. He's the last of the GSOT that hasn't gotten in. Wayne gets in next year.

Same with Revis. Dude sucked as a Jet. Really came into his own as a Chief.

What's being lost here is Thomas really wasn't a classic LB. He was a pass rusher. He had 126 sacks in 11 years. That's 11 sacks per year average. How many LB's have that average?
His life was cut short so he probably would have had like 150 for sure. How many LB's averaged 11 sacks for career? Not even Lawrence Taylor but it's close and he played 13. No DC was game planning for sorry ass Zach Taylor but there sure as hell were for Thomas.
