We know Bowman isn't playing. Apparently neither is Willis:

Ahmad Brooks flying tmw to Hawaii while #49ers 7 other Pro Bowlers not making trip. "I guess I'll represent us." Others are hurt.

Obviously Wagner cant play but if he were next in line with the votes, I hope they would ceremoniously announce that he made the pro bowl and then move on the next MLB down the list. I have no idea where he stands in the voting though. He started slow at times this season, but he ended the year on an absolute tear. It would be a nice honor for Wags.

It would be great for Wagner and he's very deserving. 15 tackles last night, another great game. :th2thumbs:

Still think he's better than Keuchly, especially for a Pete Carroll team wear speed and athleticism from a linebacker is essential. To have got him in the nd round and after two full years of starting is clearly one of the best in the leauge is quite astonishing. You could make a case most of the players on our defense are good enough to make the pro bowl. Bennett, Mebane, Avril, Maxwell.

Kuechly is pretty damn good, and overall deserved DROY over Wagner last year. Seems to have followed it up with another excellent year. I think we would have taken him if he'd been on the board. Wagner has done an awesome job for us most of this year, with the exception of a couple games he seemed invisible (probably nagging injuries that were not disclosed). Two excellent players.

Bobby has been amazing the last half of the season. That ankle issue slowed him down for a bit, but man has he gotten back in a big way. He was great yesterday as well.
