RNFL 2019 Hall of Fame Inductees

By jking

ILB Napoleon Harris
Harris played 7 of his 12 years with the Oakland Raiders, leaving the team in a contract restructure/franchise tag debacle. He played another 5 years with the Seahawks, finishing his career with 1266 tackles (2nd all time, 1st at the time of his retirement) and 498 assists (1st all time). He was a steady and solid performer, with 8 seasons of over 100 tackles and only 4 games missed his entire career.

RB Justin Fargas
Justin played his entire career with the Oakland Raiders, gaining the starting position in 2005 and making an immediate impact, getting Silver Bowl MVP honors in the same season. After that season Fargas gained over 1000 yards in each of the next 8 seasons. The running game was only part of the gift that Fargas played with. He also had 561 receptions for nearly 4500 yards, and had another 9000 yards in kick returns, returning 5 for scores. He was the ultimate all purpose back, compiling an incredible 25373 total yards. He is currently 11th all time in rushing yards and amassed 104 TD's in his career. He managed 3 consecutive seasons with 70 or more receptions, and 7 consecutive with 50 or more.

CB Andre Woolfolk
Woolfolk played 11 seasons with the Tennessee Titans, and then had a retirement tour in 2014 with the Colts. Woolfolk was a beast in the secondary, batting down a record 160 passes over 12 years. That record stood for the 5 years after he retired, but looks to be passed this upcoming season. Woolfolk was a bit of a surprise HOF pick, especially with Rashean Mathis eligible for enshrinement this year.

RB Gilbert Kuczowski
The Kooz... Rookie of the year in 2005, Offensive player of the year in 2008, League MVP in 2011. Gilbert played 10 years with the Rams, missing only one game during his career. He enters the Hall 7th in rushing attempts (3023), 3rd in rushing yards (14009), 6 in yards per carry - first all time for RB's with more than 10,000 yards (4.63), and 2nd all time in rushing TD's (117). This man was a beast. He only averaged under 4.5 ypc three times in his career, and topped 1000 yards in every one of his ten seasons.
