Bills await fate for AFC Pro Bowl
From the Rochester Democrat & Chronicle
ORCHARD PARK — As many as eight Buffalo Bills, most of them offensive players, made a case for a trip to the Pro Bowl this season.
Those players -- quarterback Drew Bledsoe, wide receivers Eric Moulds and Peerless Price, running back Travis Henry, guard Ruben Brown, tackle Mike Williams, fullback Larry Centers and punter Brian Moorman -- will learn this afternoon at practice if they’ll be playing in the Feb. 2 game in Honolulu.
The AFC and NFC squads will be announced publicly tonight on ESPN. Voting by fans, players and coaches each counted a third toward selecting the teams.
Bledsoe was the AFC’s leading vote getter among fans with 733,754. That boost from fans gives him a very good shot at being picked to his third Pro Bowl despite a second-half slump in which he has thrown just seven touchdown passes and eight interceptions, with his rating falling from 98.3 to 87.8.

I see Price and Moulds getting in, and defintely Moorman. Henry and Bledsoe have a 40-60% shot of making it in.
Who do you think will make the Pro Bowl team?
