The 2012 pro football hall of fame class was announced Saturday night, and it was nearly as notable for who wasn't elected than who was.

Jack Butler, Dermontti Dawson, Chris Doleman, Cortez Kennedy, Curtis Martin and Willie Roaf were all selected for enshrinement this summer in Canton, Ohio. 

Butler played for Pittsburgh and a was a member of the NFL's all-decade team for the 1950s.

Dawson was a six-time all-pro and part of the Steelers' great legacy of great centers.

Doleman is an eight-time pro bowler who finished with 150.5 career sacks. He played for the 49ers during the nineties.

Kennedy is also and eight-time pro bowler and the 1992 defensive mvp; he joins Steve Largent as the second player immortalized who played most of his career with the Seahawks. M

Artin retired as the league's no. 4 all-time rusher (14,101 yards) and began his career with 10 consecutive 1,000-yard seasons, a feat only previously accomplished by Barry Sanders.

Roaf was a seven-time, first-team all-pro who split his career between new orleans and Kansas city.
