It’s pretty interesting that every single player with 87+ receiving touchdowns is either in the Hall of Fame, or about to be in the Hall of Fame (Gronk, Fitzgerald, Gates).

I don’t see how anybody could argue against Mike Evans as an inevitable HOF receiver, especially if he has another 2-3 seasons at his current level of play. His consistency is something to marvel at.

The only knock is no all-pros, but I think consistency at Evans’ level combined with a ring will get him in.

Only one second-team all-pro is a huge downside. That's a very thin resume. How many people in the HoF have a resume that thin? How many seasons of his career has he been a top 3 receiver?

No shot. Tyreek, keenan allen, ceedee lamb, Diggs, ajb and amon ra all have a better case

And half of the people you listed are in the AFC. He's top 3 NFC right now.

No all pros means he was never considered one of the best at his position. Is he really better than Torry Holt? Evans's streak is nice, but sort of meaningless. Would he be much worse if he had 2 less yards in 2017?
