I have a feeling it's going to be a long time before we see Quinn (and should've been Donald) not on this list again.

I have a feeling it's going to be a long time before we see Quinn (and should've been Donald) not on this list again.

...starting next year, after another year to tear up the league, we should see Donald as a permanent fixture on this & every other list like it. He will take Suh's or McCoy's spot--a pretty tall order, but Donald is more than capable. Just imagine his impact over a full season in 2015....

I'm really surprised by the love Quinn still gets. He wasn't even close to as productive as last season. He seemed non existent at times. I know he was held a lot but still. Although he should have 11.5 sacks which I still can't believe they haven't given him.

All-Pro teams are not based on last year's productivity. It's poll of who had the best season or who is the best player at each position. The AP has 50 media people vote, the PFWA has a few hundred writers vote. Sporting News polls the players and coaches and GMs. Then they publish the results of the poll.

While it is true that Quinn did not have the number of big plays as last year, the question is after Watt, who is the next best DE in NFL? The Ap and PFWA polls showed it was Mario Williams. Was Williams better than Quinn? That's the question. Was he better than Cailis Campbnel, Cameron Wake, or Fetcher Cox? Yeah.

But, when the players reps and others were polled my guess is that Watt dominated the voting and the others were very close and in this case he got more than Mario Williams . . .

Imagine how many sacks Quinn would've had if he hadn't been held (tackled) so many times... probably at least 3-4 just in that Dallas game.

Yea, no love for Johnny Hekker either. No doubt he is the best punter in the league.

Hekker was Second-team All-Pro by AP and First-team All-NFC by PFWA

He's still got an average of like 15 sacks over the last two years. He deserves it.
