Gronk unanimous All-Pro

[patsinthesnow]

@AndrewSiciliano: Rob Gronkowski received all 50 votes for the AP All-Pro team. No other TE received a single vote.

@AP_NFL: Houston's J.J. Watt, New England Rob Gronkowski unanimous AP All-Pros; Dallas leads with 4 http://t.co/9u0jNWmeui

Revis was also the highest vote getter at CB. Revis had 42, Sherman 41.

@jeffphowe: Brady (2 votes), Vollmer (4), Connolly (1), Gostkowski (21), Collins (2), Hightower (2), McCourty (2) also got All-Pro votes.

Dan Connolly, eh?

I'm surprised that a Houston writer didn't put Watt as an all pro TE too

Dan Connolly got a vote at guard, which I can only assume was a result of somebody seeing what the OL looked like when he was either too hurt to play or too hurt to play but playing anyway.

And Vollmer got 3. Looks like they weren't separating the LT and RTs from each other.

 

[Fencer]

Collins & McCourty got 2 votes each. Brady also got 2, come to think of it (Aaron Rodgers landslide).

 

[Joey007]

Nice to see Collins and Hightower at least nab a few votes each.

 

[Joey007]

So wait do they even do first and second team all pro anymore?

Right. Looks like out of the 100 tackle votes, left tackles got 92 and right tackles got 8, of which Vollmer had 3. That gives a pretty good indication of where he's ranked relative to the guys at his same position.

How about 42 year old Vinatieri being named 1st team all pro?

 

[SalemPats]

I like the fact that Lynch got a vote as a FB and Watt got 5 votes as a DT

one voter selected only one running back.
one voter did not select a fullback.
one voter did not select a punter

Wonder if Sherman will cry and call out the voters

 

[JMC00]

I'm absolutely shocked that Manning didn't get 1 vote. You'd figure one of his ballwashers would throw him a vote.

Guess the all-pro team doesn't need to kickoff.

 

[FrodoBagginz]

Well deserved. No other TE comes close to the Gronk when he is healthy.

 

[SalemPats]

He should be thanking Earl Thomas for carrying his career.

 

[Fixit]

But ... but ... Jimmy Graham!!!

 

[Gronkandez]

Wonder if Sherman will cry and call out the voters

exactly. "You do that to me you see what happens! This is disrespect!!"

 

[bigballas]

Lol at all those that ever thought jimmy graham was ever in same convo as gronk as top TE

I can live with it, but it should have been Gostkowski.

Strictly speaking, they never have. The "second team" is actually the runners-up at a given position (so, for example, there is no second-team All-Pro TE this year, b/c GRONK got ALL the TE votes).
