Draft Position As It Pertains To The Hall of Fame

[BiggieScooby]

Was doing some geek research on every Hall of Famer and where they were drafted. Keep in mind there are presently 203 Hall of Famers not counting the 2011 Class. Of those 203 there are 94 First Round Picks in the HOF. It doesn't take a genius to realize that the #1 pick has the highest percentage of Hall of Famers.
