Kuhn...No
OL...the Packers OL isn't great, not sure how they have the leading T, G, and C, plus Clifton has been out
Mason Crosby...No way
Desmond Bishop...Patrick Willis???
Charles Woodson...not even the best corner on his team anymore
Morgan Burnett...off the top of my head I have a hard time believing this one
Jarrett Bush...up for debate, not sure what makes him better than Corey Graham

Woodson is getting up there, but Tramon isn't better...

Charles has put up 33 tackles, 1 sack and 5 INTs. Tramon has 24 tackles, and 2 INTs.

Is Charles Woodson overhyped now? No doubt about it. But he's still the best CB on that team.

One bad game means you shouldn't make the Pro Bowl?

He's been the best kick returner this year.

Tramon's a better cover corner, Woodson's a better playmaker and better against the run.

Tramon's a better cover corner, Woodson's a better playmaker and better against the run.

I'll agree with this. Although I've seen Woodson miss a lot of tackles coming in run support this season.
