Fan voting for the Pro Bowl tends to be a joke in my eyes.
The evidence so far, from an AFC South perspective:
Houston's Duane Brown, who's been just dominating, is fourth among AFC tackles.
Houston's Antoine Caldwell, who’s no longer the starter at right tackle, is third among guards.
Tennessee's Jordan Babineaux , who recently hasn’t been part of the base defense, is second in strong safeties.
That’s all ridiculous.
Here’s where AFC South players stand in the Top 5 among vote getters so far.
