PHILADELPHIA, PA – NOVEMBER 05: Wide receiver Alshon Jeffery /

Zach Ertz, TE

Zach Ertz is having a heck of a season. Before he missed a game with a hamstring injury, he was a top-ten receiver in the NFL. He is currently tied for third in the league with receiving touchdowns and is one of the most dangerous weapons in the best red zone offense in the entire NFL. Ertz missing the Pro Bowl would be a major snub. He has clearly been a top-three tight end in the NFL this season and needs to be recognized as that.

Nelson Agholor, WR

We got a new face on the ballots! Nelson Agholor has made a complete 360-turn this season. His 428 yards and five touchdowns have been career-high numbers with still half of the season remaining. It would be tough for Agholor to squeeze into the Pro Bowl, but his final seven-game campaign could surely turn heads.

Alshon Jeffery, WR

Alshon Jeffery had a slow start on the Eagles offense but he starting to heat things up. He has three touchdowns in the last two games and its starting to look like the Carson Wentz and Jeffery connection is finally starting to click. Don’t be surprised to see an explosive second half of the season by Jeffery.

Torrey Smith, WR

This was a shocking name to see on the ballots. Torrey Smith has been a major disappointment in the Eagles offense. Clearly, he was brought in as veteran help to stretch the field, but Smith has had a hard time getting things going. He has only 221 yards and one touchdown on the season. His multiple drops have made him a target for frustrated fans on gameday. The chances of Smith getting voted in this season is very slim.
