Locks:
Clay Matthews - even though he seems to be struggling with injuries a bit lately, he built up enough numbers and good press early that there's no way he's not in
Good shot:
Aaron Rodgers - 4 NFC QBs are vying for 3 spots. Vick should be a lock. That leaves Rodgers, Ryan, and Brees. Rodgers has the numbers, Ryan has the best record, and Brees has the reputation. Can't say he's a lock, but it's a 66% chance.
Charles Woodson - Not the best cover man on the team? Maybe not, but he's a better all around player. While he doesn't have the numbers of last year, he has the rep and he's still deserving.
Nick Collins - similar situation to Woodson, but nobody jumps out as clearly better in the NFC. I think he gets in.
Greg Jennings - he's been in the mix for three years without getting in. Probably due to splitting votes with Driver. With Driver and Finley hurt there's no question he's the go to guy. But there are always more guyw with numbers than there are spots available. He could get screwed again, but I think this is his year.
Tramon Williams - developed into a premier cover corner. However, do enough people know that? I'd guess not yet.
Josh Sitton - OL is a position where you usually go to the Pro Bowl the year after you first deserve it, but once you're in someone has to be spectacular to knock you out. He's deserving, but he goes next year.
Long shots:
BJ Raji - DL is all about sacks. I haven't checked the numbers, but I doubt he has enough. That's a shame, because he deserves to go.
Cullen Jenkins - minus the club he probably has 3 to 5 more sacks and he's a no brainer. But that's not the case and now he'll be hurt leading up to selection time. Doesn't look good.
Chad Clifton - playing as well as he ever has. But even at his best he wasn't a Pro Bowler (I believe his only appearance was as an alternate). He'll likely be an alternate again, but sometimes they'll throw one of these old guys a bone.
AJ Hawk - the guy seems to be an alternate every year following a mediocre season. He's having a better year this year. Does that mean the people that made him an alternate before put him in this year? Stranger things have happened, but still I don't think he goes.
