Welker named to AP's All-Pro team - Extra Points - Boston.com

Wes Welker was named to the Associated Press' All-Pro team on Thursday, the first time the Patriots receiver has been chosen.

Welker, who suffered a season-ending knee injury in the regular-season finale against the Texans, had 123 receptions for 1,348 yards and four touchdowns this season. He had seven games with 10 or more receptions. He also missed games in Weeks 2 and 3 vs. the Jets and Falcons.

No other Patriots player made the All-Pro first team. Guard Logan Mankins was named to the second team.

Congratulations Wes Welker!

That article is slightly inaccurate. Welker was named to the AP All-Pro Second Team last year:

Ravens safety Reed is only unanimous selection to All-Pro team

And in 2007, too.

Kinda funny, though, that this thread gets five messages, all day, and the "Dean Pees 'fired'" thread gets 40 messages in about 20 minutes.

People flock to the negative. Just watch your local news.

Indeed, kind of surprised me.

Thus I bumped it up 16 hours after the last reply.

I think that they meant it was the first time he had been named to the all-pro 1st team. Well deserved Wes, congrats man!
