I never considered being "second team" being all that great.

Also Rodgers is 3rd team or worse and we knew he's not that great either...(sarcasm)

That's why you sometimes see big name guys who missed like half a season or played like crap make 2nd team all-pro, the writers didn't know who to pick so they went with a big name guy without doing their homework.

Notice how most the other Packers star players aren't even listed. They got even less 1st place votes.

Agreed on the AP voters not always knowing what they're talking about. Same as the pro bowl. Sometimes they are just wrong. But I think Bakhtiari in particular deserved the recognition this year. Not like that year Jeff Saturday played for the Pack and got the pro bowl nod, he was awful that year.
