Defensive lineman Vince Wilfork, right tackle Sebastian Vollmer and rookie cornerback Devin McCourty were all named Second Team All-Pro for the 2010 season, ESPN.com reports, as voted on by 50 media members across the country.
In a season where the Patriots' defense was its biggest question mark coming into the year, Wilfork stepped up as the defensive leader. The 325-pound lineman posted some of the best numbers in his seven-year career, recording 57 total tackles, with a career-high 46 individual hits. He also matched his career high in sacks with two on the year.
Vollmer was also a pillar of strength for the Pats in 2010. The offensive tackle played in all 16 games, and missed just one practice during the entire season.
McCourty's standout rookie season was reason enough to believe that Bill Belichick still knows how to draft. The corner started every game in 2010, posting a team-high seven interceptions, including two against the Lions on Thanksgiving Day. McCourty also posted 82 tackles with one sack on the year.
