These are recent RT that have received post-season recognition:
Lane Johnson, Tristan Wirfs, Ryan Ramczyk, Trent Brown, Brian O’Neill, Mitchell Schwarz & Orlando Brown, Jr.
I went through a whole bunch of pro-bowl snub articles each year since LC has been in the league. The only ones that complained were Cowboys based. Collins is an excellent RT (and G too). But we aren’t talking the second coming. Some guy was complaining that Jonah was only average. Like it was something to be embarrassed about.
For the first time in recent memory we have a decent line (or should). I am okay with that.
Not trying to say he is the second coming of Willie Anderson, but yeah he's pretty damn good. I would think he would of made at least one, but as long as there is a LT bias, it will make it hard for RTs to get in. RT really should be allotted its own slot for the pro-bowl. AFC this year had 3 LT's make the pro bowl, I would imagine since 2015 there would of been at least one year where Collins was the 3rd best RT in the NFC. I would obviously need more research, but my point more is that a RT not having a pro-bowl isn't really a knock IMO.
