Then I think Donnie Edwards should have made it, he gets snubbed every year...

I've always thought that there weren't enough linebacker spots in the Pro-Bowl. (3 OLB and 2 ILB). With more teams playing a 3-4 now, Pro Bowl linebacker spots are difficult to come by.
There are some other strange things that I don't quite understand like why are there two starting CB spots but only one reserve when WRs have two. And why is there a reserve FS spot but not one for SS?
WR spots have two starters and two reserves yet OLB has 2 starters and only one reserve. I'd like to see them add another OLB and ILB reserve spots and another CB reserve spot as well as a reserve spot for SS. It would seem more refelctive of the NFL today.
That being said, I don't know if Donnie really played at a Pro Bowl level this year. He's played great but I think he deserved it more in recent years than this year. Phillips definitely got snubbed but Baltimore's defense is being hyped up like their 2000 defense.
