With a week left in the Pro Bowl voting, the Cardinals still have five players among the top 10 at their positions, and are still led by rookie Budda Baker's second-place overall among special teams players (and Baker is also second among NFC vote-getters, with Philly's Kamu Grugier-Hill atop the standings.) What is a little surprising is that Patrick Peterson is eighth among cornerbacks and only fifth among NFC cornerbacks. Peterson certainly is deserving of Pro Bowl recognition this season.
Besides Peterson and Baker, the other Cardinals in the hunt are:
-- WR Larry Fitzgerald (fifth overall, third in NFC) -- FS Tyrann Mathieu (eighth overall, fourth in NFC) -- OLB Chandler Jones (fourth overall, first in NFC)
The fan vote is only part of the equation for Pro Bowl selections, of course. The vote of both the players and the coaches is heavily weighted, but it sure seems like the Cards will be in line for a handful of selections. Voting goes through Dec. 14 and you can vote by clicking here.
