Rickey Jackson of Pahokee is Palm Beach County's only member of the NFL HOF

Who do we have left?  One is a lineman and the other is arguably the greatest defensive player to ever come out of south FL.  Neither went to high schools known for football.

Derrick Thomas not sure of school

It is Derrick Thomas, and he played for South Miami High.  He is the only Dade County Hall of Famer.

One to go, folks.  He is arguably the best lineman to ever come out of south FL.  He played HS football in Broward County and went on to become an All-American at Michigan.

Here are the answers below.  I find it interesting that as much as we talk about the traditional Miami-Dade powerhouses, none of them has produced an NFL Hall of Famer. 

Palm Beach County-Rickey Jackson/Pahokee

Broward County -Michael Irvin/St Thomas Aquinas, Steve Hutchinson/Coral Springs, Isaac Bruce/Dillard

Miami-Dade County-Derrick Thomas/South Miami

Very hard to believe Dada has only one hall of famer.
