Of course Bell's suspension is one of the reasons why he is not an first team all-pro, but the two ahead of him were also unbelievable.

Steelers WR Antonio Brown Voted 2016 First-Team All-Pro; Bell, DeCastro Earn Second-Team Honors

fair, honestly. could have been any of those 3 although Bell and Johnson are clearly the best all purpose backs in the league

Yep

[86WARD]

I'm more surprised that Johnson was left off before Bell.

Landon Collins... argh!!!

That one kills me.

I would take Zeke. With Bell a close second due to injury and boneheadedness.

Good to see Matt Ryan selected over Shady for first team QB rather than Brady being selected based in part on reputation

A lot of this is still based on name recognition once you get selected for the first time - I do not claim to have watched video on guard play across the league, but for a second team All Pro selection DeCastro certainly seemed to have his number called on holding penalties a lot this season

Note that the Chiefs, who nobody regards as a juggernaut, had four first team All Pros and 2 of the first team DBs (Tyreek Hill, Travis Kelce, Marcus Peters and Eric Berry). Given the Steelers' problems with kick coverage and handling TEs that willl be disturbing if the Steelers get past the Dolphins.

Averages over 150 scrimmage yards a game, almost got to 2,000 scrimmage yards while playing in 4 games, yet only a 2nd team all-pro flex player?

Happy for Brown. But how the hell does TY Hilton not make it ? That is a disgrace

Good job, Titans.

Last year, they traded out of the #1 overall, got the #5 overall from the Rams this year... and used those extra picks in last year's draft to move up for All Pro Jack Conklin.

And I saw some people giving an F to the titans when they drafted Conklin!

Those are the same ones who berated the Artie Burns pick.

Yeah the Titans arrow is pointing up. They probably have the second best O-Line in football, a solid QB, a Top-RB and solid rookie behind him. Pro Bowl type TE. They could use some help at WR but on offense, a lot of pieces are there.

That's why you treat draft picks as valuable currency instead of just of just giving a bunch of them away for 1 player. The titans improve 6 games and still get a top 5 pick, while the 4-12 Rams are left with only 1 pick in the top 100

Thing about the Titans is they used to be the Oilers. That was a great rivalry also. The franchise moved and the NFL shuffled the divisions, so now it's only a random game. But there used to be some real bad blood with the Oilers. The rivalry has cooled a lot, I would say gone completely out, however, this is a team to keep an eye on next few seasons. Anybody think Lebeau doesn't want to avenge getting run out? This could become a rivalry again. Not so much fan-wise since Houston has a new team and has moved on. The on the field rivalry can get fired up again though.

Spot on

The draft is a team's pipeline to success.

I like TY, but to me he's not one of the top wrs in the game. Soft and I've seen him drop quite a few passes over the years (although that could be from sheer volume.)

I'm glad for it. Maybe if Bell realizes he missed out due to his suspension, something he could have been part of if it had not been for his suspension, just maybe he matures a bit and gains more focus.
