Also drafted as future choice by Denver AFL The 49ers have had their fair share of snubs over the years, but these four former players need to be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
But the calls for some other legendary greats to eventually don the gold jacket could get louder and should eventually include these four all-time players. OK, so there might be a safe argument suggesting, while great with the 49ers, was Young truly an all-time Hall of Fame-worthy great? After all, Young reached the Pro Bowl only four times and was a first-team All-Pro just once, , and the usual trajectory for Canton-bound defenders is to get six or seven Pro Bowl nods over their careers.

At the time of his retirement, Perry was the NFL's second all-time leading rusher. Craig's campaign -- in which he became the first player to have more than 1, rushing yards and 1, receiving yards in the same season -- is one of the most impressive of all time.

It took a heckuva long time for St. Clair, whose stellar year run with the 49ers ended in , to make it into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, but he eventually got the call in It was difficult to go with Staley over longtime Niners tackle Steve Wallace.
Yet, Staley has played at such a high level during this three-year run of NFC Championship Game appearances -- making the Pro Bowl each year -- that he can't be ignored. McIntyre was an elite combination of toughness and finesse, someone who could battle the Jim Burts and Steve McMichaels of the trenches or get out quickly on the sweep. He made five Pro Bowls and won three Super Bowls with the 49ers.
Cross is known as a color commentator and as a center to many 49ers fans, but during the prime of his career, he played the guard position as well as anyone this side of John Hannah.
Cross made three Pro Bowls as a guard -- and, of course, he collected three big rings over the course of his career.
