First two members of the inaugural class - Anthony Munoz and Paul Brown. They are automatically inducted, no voting.
Looks like Boomer, Chad, Kenny Anderson, Ken Riley are nominees for this inaugural class, as they are in the RoH video.

Old School here. I'm voting for the Kens.

Ditto.  Both overdue for a higher honor.

I see no point in excluding any of those guys from the inaugural class. Do other teams vote on this kind of thing? That seems sorta silly to me. The ring of honor should just be no brainers, and sorta exclusive. To me it's those guys, Corey Dillon, and nobody else til Geno and AJ Green retire.

We are late to the party honoring our past greats, but glad they did it.

I was driving when I posted this, sorry if I didn't post the correct link or anything. I think I seen only season ticket holders to get to vote for upcoming people unless I read it wrong

It's reasonable to think they don't want to front-load all the guys all at once.
They can make a yearly event out of this and induct a few people each time.

Got Dammit @Bengals . You all are making some people really happy today! We’ve pushed for this for years! Thank you Mike Brown , Katie and her Daughter who’s really pushing this and other initiatives. I told y’all the 2 events they had in 2017 &18 were 1st class! #WhoDey #Legends

Curtis for sure. Probably Willie too. They sorta slipped my mind. I think it should be reserved for the best of the best though. Not the Ring of Pretty Good. I have a ton of favorites, I'm just not sure they should really be in it though.

Glad to see ownership finally doing this. Some tough decisions on who to induct these first few years. Hopefully the season ticket holders vote in some of the older guys first while they are still with us.

[Earendil]

Well.... it's about time.

[Clark W Griswold]

David Fulcher?

Gotta have some defensive guys and I loved the way Fulcher played.

[Gamma Ray Tan]

Has to be Anderson and Riley

You spelled Sam Wyche wrong.

I agree with those cats though. I'd wager they're voting to engage fans.

[*Wyche'sWarrior*]

I think the two Ken's should be the first in, no doubt.

Kevin Kaesviharn finally going to have his day

I'm on it.  A shame that it will be posthumous for the Rattler.

PS I'm an older fan -- glad they are doing this while I'm still with us.
