    Byrd's contract demands just went through the roof.

      Kyle and Dareus deserved it for the Dline.

          Nice for our players to get recognition, but the Pro Bowl is meaningless. I get Mario and Williams, but Byrd. He only played half the season.

            Would've been nice to see Kiko make it also. Dareus was probably left out because they didn't want to overload the d-line with Bills. Byrd making it just perpetuates how much of a joke the Pro Bowl can be.

            Personally, I would've sent Mario, Kyle, Dareus and Alonzo.

            Nice to see guys like Josh Gordon, Burflict and Kuechly get some recognition though.

              Glad to see Dareus didn't make it.
              He sucked against the run.

                  Too bad Marcel doesn't know him. He'd deep fat fry him and eat him like a chicken wing.

                    Not true, I don't know him.

                    Guess I'm not the only one who feels his play is not Pro Bowl worthy.

                      Mario makes a $400K incentive for making the Pro Bowl. He has an additional $400K in incentives each year of his contract he probably has earned with his sack numbers. He cap number next year is going to rise from $18.4M.

                      Kyle Williams also has significant incentives in his contract he has likely earned as well.

                      Byrd is on the tag, so he earns nothing extra.

                        It's a name recognition and stat contest.

                        Dareus has played well this year and it's a new defensive system. Add another 'backer to the front seven and they might be one of the better defenses in the league.

                          Dareus was left out because he wasn't better than the remaining DTs on the roster. Here's the IOL roster:

                          Interior lineman:Gerald McCoy, Buccaneers; Haloti Ngata, Ravens; Dontari Poe, Chiefs; Justin Smith,49ers; Ndamukong Suh, Lions; Kyle Williams, Bills.

                          Who of them is he better than?

                          Ditto Alonso:
                          Inside/middle linebacker:NaVorro Bowman, 49ers; Vontaze Burfict,Bengals; Luke Kuechly, Panthers;Patrick Willis, 49ers.?

                          The only one you could maybe argue for is Burfict, but he beats Alonso in several categories. The real guy with a grudge here is Lavonte David.

                            I remember in '93 and '94 the Houston Oilers had 10 or 11 players make the Pro Bowl. They were 0-2 in the playoffs.

                              He did win the fan vote, so clearly someone does.

                              Also, saying you are happy that someone on your team didn't make the pro bowl is extremely childish. It seems you are extremely bitter when OBD doesn't take "your" guy.
