The only people making the HOF case for Ken Anderson (for that matter, Riley) are Cincy-based. Those campaigns are self-contained; they're living under a shoe. You have to give the rest of the country a chance to see them. Historically, the Bengals' marketing efforts have been putrid, and as long as that's true it would help to have an ambassador to lead the way. 

I'm not saying Chad's the secret potion lol. Far from it. But he would at least inspire some mainstream coverage of the event. In the end, you gotta get people talking about these players, and Chad is better than anyone at getting people talking.

My intial thought was Chad and Riley... Pretty much for the reasons I laid out for Riley, and those you laid out for Chad... Then there's the whole all time leader thing for Chad too. I honestly think Corey should go in sooner than he probably will too.
