Leslie O'Neal had 132.5 career sacks and is tied 14th all time with Lawrence Taylor. O'Neal made it to six pro bowls and was named 1986 AP Def POY. Seven years of his career he had double digit sacks. He has more sacks than Derrick Thomas, Dwight Freeney, Von Miller (still playing), Robert Mathis, Simeon Rice, JJ Watt, Aaron Donald (still playing). O'Neal had a great career and by all means in my opinion he is worthy of a Hall of Fame induction.

I actually looked back and it was 8 years of double digit sacks. Not only that but he missed the entire 1987 season due to a knee injury and still produced the numbers he did. It's all hypothetical but lets say he did play the '87 season and produced just 5 sacks. That would have put him tied for top 10 all time sack leader. Still a head scratcher to me why he is not if the HOF.
