Written by Sean Wagner-McCough at CBS Sports.com

On Tuesday night, the Pro Football Hall of Fame revealed the 108 nominees for the class of 2018. Headlining the group are Randy Moss, Ray Lewis, and not the Steve Smith you’re thinking of (the Steve Smith you’re thinking of — the Panthers and Ravens great — isn’t eligible yet).
