Hard to take anyone who takes making the Pro Bowl seriously.
No one takes the actual pro bowl serious but it's still an honor to be an all-star

Not really.

The Pro Bowl shouldn't be used as a measuring stick for anything. It's a popularity contest for the fans, as well as a nice vacation for the 8th best guy at a position who gets to go because 4 guys are hurt and 1 is playing the Super Bowl.

Had he said All-Pro?

Much different story.

Meh.

Maybe for QB's and long term guys...

but to make a 1st pro bowl is an honor...I think you're wrong here.

Just because Matt Cassel was a 4th alternate and made a pro bowl one year doesn't mean a pro bowl bid isn't an honor. You're a jaded human being.

Honestly...I'm not a huge fan of Vacarro.

It is an honor for the player, but it isn't a meaningful guage of a player's performance.

Pfffft no Neon Sandcastle what a joke.

If they're hell-bent on a LT, trading down and taking Johnson is the only move I will get behind.

I knew the 1.1 thing was a joke. Doesn't mean you don't like him. :)

This.

I'm not sure where "honor" was mentioned in the piece.

Brandt was using the Pro Bowl as a measure of performance, which is ridiculous.

I actually don't know a lot about him.

Brandt mentions his lack of speed. I don't see his recognition skills overcoming his lack of it. He's an okay player. Will probably be an adequate starter but I'd put him more 2nd-3rd round.
