But when mediocre (even for their time) players like Swann, Bradshaw and Stallworth are in, it's complete BS.

Agreed. It seems the criteria has been "fluid" over the years. I think a heavy weight should be placed on how great players were in their primes, as well as how famous they were. It is the Hall of Fame after all. Unfortunately, they've placed more emphasis on (often padded) career stats and what team you played for (Steelers, Cowboys, etc).

Bettis was not a better RB than CD at their primes for example. We all know this. 

Same goes for Chad vs Hines. Hines was often not the best WR on his own team.
