With the second half of the NFL season rolling full speed ahead, the NFL just announced the opening of Pro Bowl voting all across the league, and the Eagles had 27 players land on the ballot.
Miles Sanders was a shocking omission, but this talented team could have several first-time Pro Bowlers if Philadelphia can make a late playoff run.
Below is a look at seven Eagles who could get the nod.

The Eagles quarterback has an excellent chance of making the team.
Hurts is 9th in the NFC in passing yards with 2,159, and touchdowns (13), while his 547 rushing yards are 6th in the NFC.
Hurts is the 5th highest-graded quarterback in the NFC.
2. WR DeVonta Smith

Smith is 16th in the NFC in receptions with 42. His 603 receiving yards are 12 in the NFC. Barring a monster five or six-game stretch, Smith would probably need a few guys to drop out and a few teammates to make the Super Bowl.

Bradley is in his second NFL season after the Eagles made him a sixth-round draft pick out of Temple, and the South Jersey native is carving out quite the niche.
The athletic linebacker is currently tied for first in the NFC and tied for second in the NFL with 10 tackles on special teams.
