Weird. So still stack the SB and take a shot on a pro bowler or two?
Don't know yet but the Pro Bowl salaries are very low since they know the players wont play long, thinking PB Kickers may be nice as they always score a ton of points in these things

Is there somewhere that shows who is playing with who for the Pro Bowl - What Qb is playing with what WRs?

as we get closer to game day they will announce the starters, you may just have to wait intil Sunday afternoon
Some thoughts
DO you think the PB HC will play their players more or less than players from other teams?
Only 2 kickers so they both get to play all game and I have a feeling they will let Tuck try a ridiculously long FG
Only 4 TEs so theoretically each will get a half a game and there really is no TE in the Super Bowl I want to roster

Thought the same things. Of course I went with a Brady LU and stack again with Zeke, a Pro Bowl Wr/TE/K and NE D. Just doing 2 $1 entries, so I am not going to overthink this one. LUs right now:
Brady - Lewis/Zeke - Edelman/OBJ/Sanu - Kelce - Tucker -NE
Brady - Zeke/Coleman - Edelman/Hogan/Evans - Graham - Prater - NE

I totally forgot that they did this last year as well, still probably smart for me to cash out my winnings on FD and DK this week so I don't go nuts on this pro bowl nonsense.
As others have noted, there aren't many TEs and they seem to put up solid numbers.
Another thing I noticed looking at the stats from the past 2 years is that RBs get hardly any carries, it's all passing.*
So IMO TE and WR is where to go for the pro bowl.
*ETA: Rice and Irvin were coaches the past few years so these things may change with real coaches at the helm again. Still I would think in a game like this where it's all for show and people aren't into tackling that passing a lot would be the way to go.

Prater kicked a 76 yarder today:

Tucker might not be the only one that gets to try a ridiculously long FG. Too bad Fanduel doesn't give 6 pets for 60+ yards. Seems almost every Pro Bowl possession may result in some score. Now you just gotta pick the right guys.
