Compelling argument, but I disagree. Edge had another gear in those first two years that made him elite. The ACL tear robbed him of that, but his all around skillset was so good that he was still a highly productive RB even without it. He produced at a level comparable to Marshall Faulk in those first two seasons. The explosive pre-ACL tear Edge who averaged 125+ all purpose yards per game would've had a better career than LT. That he was able to turn himself into a consistent Top 5 RB without that explosion speaks to his immense talent level and is the reason he belongs in Canton.
