Is Alshon A Probowl Alternate?

[msadows]

The only list I found was bleacher report, and it said he wasn't (Piere Garcon, Jordy Nelson, DeSean Jackson, etc all where).

How did this man not make the pro bowl, much less become a first alternate?

Yes and he will get added because Calvin will probably drop out.

any link to that? Sorry if im being needy, I was just trying to use the google machine to see pro bowl alternates and couldn't find much.

I don't expect D Thomas to play either since I expect the broncos in the SB(but anything can happen before then)

Nope, he flat out got snubbed. Then again you probably don't want him getting a PB nod anyways if you're talking about extending him after next year.

I don't think it matters whether or not he made the pro bowl in regards to his contract IMO....he's going to get $$$.

Where is Teddy KGB when we need him?

He had the 2nd best season for a WR in bears history. Have a repeat performance and hes going to be the highest paid WR in the nfl, or close to that.

I was always under the impression that all-pro and pro bowl nods did factor into how much a player makes on his post-rookie contract. I guess I am wrong. I already know he is going to cost us a pretty penny to re-sign no matter what but next year's performance will go a long way in just how much he's going to break the bank.

I know Kyle Long is an alternate. Pretty impressive to see a rookie OL get that type of recognition.

I actually love the Pro Bowl (I know I'm in the minority there) but even I would be a little mad if Nelson made it ahead of Jeffery.

The Pro Bowl is a fuckin joke

This.

Would rather see him make the All-Pro team.

Who decides pro bowl alternate's? Is that voted on by players and coaches, or is it just next in line from who didn't make it with the popularity vote by the fans?

Guessing, and I think a logical one, the next player based on the same criteria the other pro bowl players got voted in on.

Alshon should have been there instead of Dez Bryant

I think agents definitely try to use it. But at the end of the day, Jeffery played at a probowl level even if he didn't make it and thats a lotta leverage.

Cordarrelle is in now..... WHOO!
