Trai Turner Named To Pro Bowl For Second Consecutive Season

Apparently Trai Turner just became a pro-bowler for his second straight season:

Guard  Trai Turnericon-article-link.gif  has been named to the 2017 Pro Bowl, taking the place of Washington guard Brandon Scherff, who is unable to participate due to injury.

His production may have dropped off, but no doubt he played his heart out. From transitioning between tackle and guard this whole season, he's shown dedication and effort in all he did. 

Although Andrew Norwell is undoubtedly the most underrated guard in the league, and should've gone based solely on production, Trai Turner is still a great interior. No doubt in my mind we'll have a great o-line once we have continuity and health for a full season in that area.

Norwell was probably more deserving but good for Trai.

Turner put up the good fight this season.  It's hard not to drop off with the o-line situation, and situation he was put in.  I think people just dial in to the negative, and the positive gets overlooked...

Imagine if we had 2 pro bowl tackles to pair with our stud guards

Basically we got an All Pro Center, 2 pro bowl caliber guards, and 2 possible solid starting tackles for next year; assuming Daryl Williams beats out Remmers as expected.

We could go to war with Oher, Norwell, Kalil, Trai Turner, Williams.

    • Damn back to 10th. I only caught the last 5 minutes but some of those 3's were horrible lol. In that close of game you can't be launching those many hail mary's when you could be chipping away from the foul line. I guess no one wanted to get in the paint and didn't trust the refs to give them the calls maybe? Gonna watch the highlights to get a better idea of the flow of the game
    • I agree.  The Big 12 is a good conference, and he is the swinging dick in that conference.  If Bill Self retires, that sets Kansas back a bit, and Arizona moves even further ahead as the best team in that conference.  Arizona can crush west coast recruiting with USC / UCLA no longer being relevant for LA kids, and Gonzaga not being able to compete moneywise.   If Lloyd comes here, he will be second fiddle to Duke every single year in NIL and recruits.  Not to mention the entire SEC and Big East for kids who want to stay in those regions to play. This is why I keep saying go get Mark Few.  Has proven he can do more with less from an X / O perspective but can also recruit All American players and compete at a high level. He's a god at Gonzaga, but for $9M he'd make the move as that's 4x what he's making at Gonzaga, and makes him the highest paid coach in the country. 
    • Certainly not going to miss his constant whiffs on sacks and tackles.
