How many probowls did Mebane make?
Mebane was a beast and one of the best 1Techs in the league, but that type of skill set doesn't get you to the pro-bowl.
Richard Sherman was quoted as saying of Mebane: "He's an incredibly technical player in his movements and everything he does. He's rarely out of position and he's rarely out of the play. You rarely see a defensive tackle running making tackles on the sideline, or [making] tackles on screen plays. He does all that. But once again, he's overlooked because I guess he's not a big sack-total guy. He's just a guy that does his job incredibly well week in and week out."
That is Poona Ford AKA Mini-Mebane.
Last year was incredibly frustrating watching him be inactive so many weeks. Every time he was on the field he performed.
But he has to rack up the sacks to make the pro-bowl. From the 1Tech position that is incredibly hard.
