    In:
    - Foster
    - Watt

    Next likeliest:
    - Daniels: as in most likeliest to get ROBBED (and *huh huh* we're not talking GRONKOWSKI'ed) right now he's in behind Gronk if things stay the same.
    - Duane Brown: rising reputation on a rising team with stellar play

    In running/Needs help:
    - Schaub: Manning, Brady, Big Ben top 3, though he's clear #4. Needs own surge or regression from others
    - Antonio Smith: was an alternate last year, probably the same consideration this year
    - Meyers: same as above
    - Joseph: Made it last year, needs to impress more to carry that over this year.
    - Andre Johnson: name recognition but several candidates clearly out in front. Getting warmed up and always capable of mega beasting for weeks but doesnt look likely to happen this year
    - Quin: Good all around season. Ed Reed WILL get in, and its competitive after that

    Darkhorses:
    - Kareem Jackson: (really)! tied for 3rd in NFL with many players in INTs, has TD return, playing in the best D in the conference. More importantly is playing good coverage
    - James Casey: FB isnt competitive field as it once was, may can sneak in if considered FB

    Voters could even pick Luck ahead of Schaub. Not rightfully but the Colts are the surprise and inspirational team in the league right now and Luck is putting up a lot of yards.

    The pro bowl is partially a popularity contest. All-pro list is based more on performance. hopefully the Texans have a couple on there this season.

    This. Who cares who gets voted in, when all of them will be busy playing in the game that actually MATTERS instead? :)

    I guess I should have switched Arian and JJ's names on the list

    Yep, I'm even surprised he is only behind Peyton and Brady so far...he should get over a thousand yards easy by next week...hopefully a fist full of TDs as well to add

    I'll be disappointed if any of them actually play in the Pro Bowl ;)

    I think Kareem should be a bit higher on some of your lists.

    1. Watt
    2. Foster
    3. Brown
    4. Daniels
    5. Joseph
    6. Jackson

    I think you could make a reasoned argument to swap JJ and KJ depending on your view of things.

    Why? KJ covers #2 WRs while Joseph covers #1s.

    Or maybe not. Hopefully this was just a bad game by Kareem and not the start of a trend.
