Hall of Fame Voting: Eddie DeBartolo and Tim Brown reach final 15 roundCam Inman and Jerry McDonald
Other modern-day finalists with Bay Area ties are outside linebackers Charles Haley and Kevin Greene and offensive lineman Larry Allen, all of whom played for the 49ers, and former Raiders defensive lineman Warren Sapp.
The final vote will be taken in New Orleans on Feb. 2, the day before the Super Bowl. The Hall in Canton, Ohio, requires that at least four finalists be elected -- and as many as seven -- but no more than five can be from the modern-era nominees. There are two senior nominees: Curley Culp and Dave Robinson.
Rounding out the list of modern-era finalists, aside from the six with Bay Area ties, are running back Jerome Bettis, wide receivers Cris Carter and Andre Reed, offensive linemen Jonathan Ogden and Will Shields, defensive end Michael Strahan, defensive back Aeneas Williams, coach Bill Parcells and owner Art Modell.http://www.insidebayarea.com/raiders/ci_22358866/pro-football-hall-fame-eddie-debartolo-and-tim
