Greg Olsen, TE

Tight end Greg Olsen is the only player from his position to record three consecutive 1,000 yard receiving seasons. A versatile athlete who can block and assist in the passing game, Olsen has seen a rise in his production with Newton at quarterback.

A three time Pro Bowl nominee, Olsen is nearing the end of his career and statistically would need a few more seasons to match the numbers put up by Shannon Sharpe, the most recent tight end inducted.

Olsen trails Sharpe by 2,500 yards and nine touchdowns but a few productive years to finish his career should have him in the mix.
