By Pro-Bowlers I am going to define it as players initially selected to the Pro-Bowl -- not guys who made it in as injury replacements (example Mike Jenkins for Antoine Winfield in 2009).
I am going to cheat a bit and start the analysis in 2006 which gives us 7 years of data and about 50 seasons of total players but the collection of Cowboys 1st and 2nd round draft picks:
2006
0 Probowls - Bobby Carpenter
0 Probowls - Anthony Fasono
2007
0 Probowls - Anthony Spencer
2008
0 Probowls - Felix Jones
0 Probowls - Mike Jenkins (did make it as a injury replacement once)
0 Probowls - Marty Bennett
2009
NA

0 Probowls - Dez Bryant
0 Probowls - Sean Lee
2011
0 Probowls - Tyron Smith
0 Probowls - Sean Lee
2012
0 Probowls - Morris Claiborne
---------------------------------
Grand Total - 0 Probowls for the 11 players selected in the 1st and 2nd rounds from 2006 to today. |
But isn't the general consensus that the Pro Bowl is a joke?
