While it\u2019s actually more of a popularity contest than anything else, the fact remains that it is one of the highest honors for an individual player to receive. The Buffalo Bills have one of the NFL\u2019s best rosters, which means that they have plenty of players that could make their way to the Pro Bowl at the end of the season.<\/p>\n<p>[pickup_prop id=&#8221;7159&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h2>Five Buffalo Bills That Could Make the Pro Bowl<\/h2>\n<h4>Stefon Diggs<\/h4>\n<p>The most obvious call on this list, Stefon Diggs proved that he is one of the NFL\u2019s great receivers during his first year with the Buffalo Bills. Finally in a pass-happy offense, Diggs was one of the major catalysts behind Josh Allen\u2019s breakout season. An elite route runner, the Maryland product led the NFL with 127 receptions for 1,535 yards while finishing sixth in yards per route run. Now entering his age-28 season, he should put up similar numbers and remain one of the NFL\u2019s elite receiving options.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">It\u2019s not THAT catch.<\/p>\n<p>But don\u2019t forget what <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/stefondiggs?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@stefondiggs<\/a> did in last year\u2019s Bills-Cardinals game.\ud83d\ude24 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/xzR8eAmpN2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/xzR8eAmpN2<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; NFL (@NFL) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NFL\/status\/1409579853666525186?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">June 28, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h4>Tre\u2019Davious White<\/h4>\n<p>While he didn\u2019t play up to his usual elite levels last year, Tre\u2019Davious White remains one of the best cover cornerbacks in the NFL. A former first-round pick, the LSU product is coming off two straight Pro Bowl seasons, and should have an inside track for a third in 2021. The Bills surprisingly ignored the cornerback position in the draft, but that could actually improve White\u2019s odds of making the Pro Bowl. With a clear weakness at CB2, opposing quarterbacks could spend more time targeting their secondary options while not even bothering with White.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Can\u2019t spell Tre&#39;Davious White without stud<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/wiO1zbeYh7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/wiO1zbeYh7<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Ian Hartitz (@Ihartitz) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Ihartitz\/status\/1279243914575216642?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">July 4, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h4>Josh Allen<\/h4>\n<p>After two inconsistent but incredibly entertaining seasons, Josh Allen <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/2020\/12\/22\/josh-allen-mvp-case\/\" target=\"_self\">put it all together<\/a> in Year 3 and turned into one of the best quarterbacks in the entire league. Appearing in all 16 games, the former first-round pick finished his season by completing 69.2% of his passes for 4,544 yards, 37 touchdowns, 10 interceptions, a 107.2 passer rating, and an 81.7 QBR. Expecting him to be <em>THAT <\/em>good for a second straight season might be asking too much, but he should remain a top 10-15 quarterback. That should be good enough to earn a Pro Bowl nomination, especially when the rest of the team is this talented.

Perennially underrated early in his Bills career, the do-everything defensive back has the ability to play both safety positions at a pretty high level. Even though he is getting up there in age, Micah Hyde should have enough good seasons left in his tank to earn another Pro Bowl nod or two, especially now that Buffalo has a fairly large spotlight after their impressive 2020 campaign.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">PICKED! <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/micah_hyde?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@micah_hyde<\/a> read it and gets the goal line interception. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/NEvsBUF?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#NEvsBUF<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/GoBills?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#GoBills<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udcfa: CBS<br \/>\ud83d\udcf1: NFL app \/\/ Yahoo Sports app<br \/>Watch free on mobile: <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/lm0vvtP8ei\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/t.co\/lm0vvtP8ei<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/3iYuMOEJQX\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/3iYuMOEJQX<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; NFL (@NFL) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NFL\/status\/1178373214046543872?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">September 29, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h4>Matt Milano<\/h4>\n<p>Fresh off a new four-year, $41.5 million contract, the investment in linebacker Matt Milano is going to immediately pay off for the Buffalo Bills. While injuries limited him to 10 games last year, expect him to improve his play with a full season under his belt. Good coverage linebackers are incredibly hard to find in today\u2019s NFL, and Milano is one of the best in that regard.
