Our last representative was Kyle Williams two years ago (2010), and he only got it cause someone who was still playing bowed out. Other than that I can't remember any Bills in the Pro Bowl for sometime.

 

*Just looked it up, Schobel was 2006, 2007 and Moorman was 2005, 2006.

 

Didn't Byrd also make it the same year (or was it 2009?)

As I understand it, every team in the NFL has to have at least one player on the Pro Bowl team. With Moorman gone, I cannot think of one player who would make it. Any suggestions?

 

Spiller or Jackson or both Levetrie or Byrd possibly & maybe K WIlliams but beyond that you got nothin !!!!

Also an indictment of what is wrong with the "everyone is a winner" non competitive uber politically correct country the USA has become in recent years.

If a team sucks to the point of not having even one player worthy, why force one to be put on the pro bowl team.

I would think said player would find it embarrassing as well.

 

Dunno if it's so much that, as much as the NFL wanting to squeeze every penny it can from every TV market. Cuz, you know, if one Buffalo Bill makes the roster than that means 6 more people will be watching the Pro Bowl. :w00t:

 

I'll bet that guy from the "suck team" would get over his embarrassment after checking the Pro Bowl bonus in his contract, too. (Assuming he isn't making $50 Kajillion, already.)

If Fitz could get the ball to him, SJ would easily be a pro bowl receiver. He's always open. And Gailey is the one who holds Spiller back. That said, Kyle Williams, Levitre, Wood, and Bryd have pro bowl potential.

Kyle, Spiller

Byrd, he'll rack up the INT stats that gets one noticed

 

No chance Kyle (or anyone else) from the front 7 makes it, with all the rush yards they give up

 

Spiller & Jackson are problematic because sharing carries hurts their stats

 

But if we end up at or near lead in rush yards that may get an Olineman like Wood or Levitre in

Damn man you are right. I did not follow my own advice of "follow the money" when it comes to the motive of the NFL!

Damn. What a quandary. It's like a question that can never be answered.....

If a tree falls in the woods does anybody hear it??

 

It's like a mystery wrapped in a riddle.

If the NFL has to pick a pro-bowler from the bills who would it be?? B-)

You're thinking of baseball. There have been several seasons recently that the Bills have had no players in the Pro Bowl.

 

Haha I know a few of us have mentioned this in the thread but no one seems to notice...

Can't believe I am going to say this since he has been more of a F-Up since he got drafted, but this year so far-McKelvin on special teams.

Did Byrd actually go or was he hurt? Thinking he didn't play but was actually voted in.

Bill's players who are of Pro-Bowl caliber IMO are as follows 1) Fred Jackson 2) C.J Spiller Other possibles as substitutes would be 1) Nick Barnett 2) Scott Chandler 3) Stevie Johnson 4) Kyle Williams

Finally as a long shot Leodis McKelvin as a kick-off returner
