where i rank the top 5 at each position most likely to go to the HOF QB: [Locks] 1. Brady- 2x MVP and 4x Super Bowl champion with 6 Super Bowl appearances. 2. Rodgers- 2x MVP and 5x Pro Bowler. Leads team with second-longest active Playoff appearance streak 3. Brees- No MVPs plus the fact that his team is struggling puts him behind the younger Aaron Rodgers. Still a 9x Pro Bowler, 6x TD leader, and 4x passing yards leader 4. Ben Roethlisberger- Certain charges taint his reputation, but Big Ben is among the top QBs every year and is at the top in many statistical categories. 4x Pro Bowler and 2x Super Bowl champion. [Non-locks] 5. Rivers- The underrated QB is frequently in the top 5 in passing yards. Rivers is a 5x Pro Bowler despite playing for a team with no championships. Honorable mentions: Russell Wilson, Andrew Luck, Cam Newton

RB: [Locks] 1. Adrian Peterson- The 7x Pro Bowler and 5x First-Team All-Pro seems to have a few great seasons left in him. Peterson won the MVP in 2012 and has lead the league in rushing 3 times. [Non-Locks] 2. Le'Veon Bell- Bell has already been a top statistical RB in the league in his first 4 seasons, and at age 24, his only concern will be staying on the field. Bell was a 2014 First-Team All-Pro. 3. Todd Gurley- Gurley was one of the NFL's best rusher as a rookie in 2015. If Gurley keeps it up and remains healthy, he'll be an HOFer. Gurley was the 2015 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year 4. LeSean McCoy- The 4x Pro Bowler and 2x First-Team All-Pro has shown flash and dazzle that is unprecedented in the league. Moreover, he's done i with 2 teams and figures to still have a few more good years in the league. 5. Frank Gore- Gore is still in the league at age 33, an age at which most RBS have long since retired or been dumped into free agency only to never be picked up. Gore is a 5x Pro Bowler who has performed with quiet consistency in every season he's played. Honorable Mentions: Doug Martin, Demarcco Murray, Arian Foster

WR: [Locks] 1. Larry Fitzgerald- The 9x Pro Bowler has over 10,000 receiving yards and over 1,000 reception to this point in his career. He's still going strong at age 32. 2. Antonio Brown- The 4x Pro Bowler and 2x First-Team All-Pro has lead the league in receptions in each of the past two seasons. At age 28, one or two more seasons of top-level production makes him a first-ballot HOFer. 3. Andre Johnson- Johnson is still in the league at age 35, meaning he has sustained great longevity. The Titans WR has accumulated 7 Pro Bowl selections and 4 All-Pro selections. Johnson has twice led the eague in receiving yards 4. Steve Smith- Smith has made 5 Pro Bowls and is notable for his longevity. At age 37, Smith has 8 seasons of over 1,000 receiving yards, as well as 2 First-Team All-Pro selections [Non-locks] 5. Odell Beckham- Like it or not, the youngster is on a historic pace after accumulating 2755 yards in his first 27 games to equate to 2 All-Pro selections and a ROTY award. At age 23, Beckham has plenty of time to break records Honorable mentions: Brandon Marshall, Julio Jones, Dez Bryant
