Kuechly

and either Vinatieri or Manning (not sure if Vinatieri will get enough anti-K votes to get in 1st ballot or if they'll choose Manning because of his media work and last name)
If I had to choose just 1 that I am most confident in it's Kuechly being a 1st ballot. 8 years, 8 Pro Bowls, 5 1st Team All-Pros, 1x DRoY, 1x DPoY, HoF All-2010s Team... career shortened by injury while still playing at an extremely high level so all of that was being done after his age 28 season. For an added HoF boost, he is now in the media with CBS Sports.
Kuechly will get in, just thinkung not 1st ballot with short career. Manning 2x SB mvp gets him in i think in 1st ballot
