Eifert was really never a strong candidate for it, outside of Bengals fans maybe overhyping him a bit as "the second best TE in football". Good season? Absolutely, but not even a top-5 TE season this year. Heck, he arguably wasn't even the best TE in the division this year. Gary Barnidge put up 79/1,043/9 this year.

Whit and Atkins certainly deserved making it this year.
Pretty funny how 4/5ths of the All Pro OL is from the AFCN. Both guards and both tackles.
Barnidge was also the only reliable target in Cleveland.
Eifert actually has to compete with AJ Green, Gio Bernard and Marvin Jones for the ball.
His touches will always be limited because he will never be THE guy.
