Philadelphia Eagles: 4 players who were snubbed from the Pro Bowl
Brandon Graham, DE
Get the pitchforks because it’s time to riot! First Kelce, now Brandon Graham? This guy is having one heck of a season on the edge. 9.5 sacks with 43 tackles and two forced fumbles is not a weak stat line. Graham has been a force up front along with the rest of the Eagles dominant defensive line.
Pro Football Focus sure wasn’t lying in the offseason when they said Graham was one of the better edge rushers in the NFL despite having a low sack count. We couldn’t agree more at the time but it is good to see his hard work reflect the numbers. Unfortunately, it’s not enough to get BG into the big game. For now, at least.
Graham was also named as an alternative to what would be his first Pro Bowl. This isn’t the first time the man has been snubbed, though. Last season Graham was recognized as a Second Team All-Pro but didn’t get into the Pro Bowl than either. Maybe it’s just not meant to be for him. Oh well, he’s better off making it to Minnesota anyway. Pro Bowl or not, Howie Roseman may have to get the checkbook out of this guy soon.
