Mike Sando with the in-your-face slam dunk.<\/p>\n

Recently, former Denver Broncos<\/a>\u2019 offensive lineman Mark Schlereth posted on X that the Broncos have the best Mt. Rushmore of cornerbacks in NFL history. Yet, Sando, a longtime NFL reporter and a good friend of mine, came back a support of the Raiders\u2019 history at the position and he came with Pro Football Hall of Fame receipts.<\/p>\n

I think it\u2019s clear that\u2019s Sando\u2019s list is far superior than Schlereth\u2019s. Gold jackets don\u2019t lie and we all now Lester Hayes deserves to be in Canton as well. On Denver\u2019s list, only Bailey is currently n the Hall of Fame.<\/p>\n

Plus, the four players on the Raiders\u2019 list spent a combined 40 seasons with the franchise (Woodson did finish his career at safety), while the players on Denver\u2019s list have spent 32 and counting with Patrick Surtain<\/a> still playing.<\/p>\n

So, it\u2019s Sando for the win.<\/p>\n
