Generally 60 WAR is when HoF talk starts happening for positional players. (Not that getting in is guaranteed, but it means talks about it happening are.)

They were about the same offensively, but Smith was a superior defender, hence his 13 Gold Gloves, which is the main thing that got him in.

Dillon is more of a borderline for me. Sad thing is, if he was drafted by a good team, he would have likely gone down as one of the best RB. Same with Steven Jackson. Great RBs who probably will miss out on HoF because of the shitty teams they were stuck with.

Football HoF is very much a popularity thing, made worse by how many people they put into it. Like 7 a year.

Popular thing what do you think gold gloves aee, you actually old enough to see them play consepcion also did things that Ozzie couldn't do and did you look at the link War didn't even exist back when Ozzy was being put a those stats don't lie in link concepcion is Major oversight so it's not just football.
