Quote:Just ask Fred Taylor

 

Funny, ask Brunell, Boselli and Jimmy Smith about it, too. 

 

I love Fred, but to be honest, there were very few instances that would qualify as a pro bowl snub for Fred. A lot of times, his injuries would keep his numbers just low enough to put him beneath the 3 top AFC RB's....enough so that you could actually make legitimate arguments against Fred making the pro bowls in a lot of those years. Was there a legit snub or 2? I'm sure there was....but most of that is because the Jags were simply a bad team during many of those years too. More pro bowl players come from playoff level teams than not as a general rule anyway. 

 

If the Jags get good and Bortles becomes the real deal, I can almost guarantee you that the Jags will have multiple pro bowl players perennially for a while.
