Los Angeles Rams star Jalen Ramsey has been one of the best defensive players in the league since he entered the NFL. With the Jacksonville Jaguars, Ramsey was a monster on the field. He earned two Pro Bowl nods and a First-Team All-Pro before getting traded to the Rams.

In LA, Ramsey has been nothing but spectacular. He has made the Pro Bowl in all three seasons he has been with the Rams, including the 2019 campaign when he was traded midseason. He also has two First-Team All-Pro nods since joining the Rams.
Jalen Ramsey Ignites Hall Of Fame Discussion With One Tweet
Ramsey’s resume is impressive, and the Rams star got everybody into a Hall of Fame discussion by firing off one simple tweet.
Stack up my first 6 years in the league to ANY corner in HISTORY! 3x 1st team All Pro & 5x Pro bowler… who else did that? 👀
— Jalen Ramsey (@jalenramsey) July 8, 2022
Ramsey definitely has a point: His resume is one of the best of all time up until this point. But, some fans — and even former cornerback Aqib Talib — responded to Ramsey’s statement.
AND YOU WAS THAT DUDE TOO! I just want people to start respecting greatness all around.
— Jalen Ramsey (@jalenramsey) July 8, 2022
The argument is definitely valid from Ramsey, and NFL fans used legends such as Darrelle Revis and Deion Sanders as examples.
Honestly, you probably have to go back to Deion to find something comparable. https://t.co/QNTEyNGagr

Deion Sanders
3x 1st team all-pro
1x 2nd team All-pro
4x Pro BowlerI’d argue Deion got robbed in 1990 for the Pro Bowl too. https://t.co/kH3dvV5itg

Deion Sanders made 4 All-Pros in his first six seasons, four Pro Bowls, won DPOY, returned kicks and punts (5 for TD), caught 11 passes and played major league baseball + twice played in the World Series https://t.co/ORpfNO51pE

Rod Woodson didn't start as a rookie but in his next six seasons he had 5 Pro Bowls, 4 All-Pros, DPOY. He also returned kicks and punts (led the NFL in kick returning in 1989)
He also led the NFL in INT and made All Pro at a different position at 37 years old https://t.co/ORpfNO51pE

I tweeted this & all the quote tweets is mentioning a guy who is probably a Hall of Famer… 🤝
😂 that’s not an insult how y’all tryna use it. That’s a compliment actually so thank you! https://t.co/QOe05o2wbx— Jalen Ramsey (@jalenramsey) July 8, 2022
Nonetheless, a lot of fans agree that Ramsey has a Hall of Fame resume.
Best corner in the league. https://t.co/B8OWqYMAxL
