With Pro Bowl voting now open, we look at the five San Francisco 49ers who are most likely to make it to the All-Star game in Orlando.

It is tough to envisage too many members of the 1-9 San Francisco 49ers making the 2018 Pro Bowl. Bu, with voting for the NFL’s annual All-Star game now officially open, there are a few players on the roster who look to stand at least a decent chance of making it to Orlando.

Here we look at five such players who could well line up for the NFC team in January.

5. Carlos Hyde

Standing ninth in the NFL in rushing yards, only four backs in the NFC have more than Carlos Hyde. One of those is Ezekiel Elliott, and with the Dallas Cowboys star serving a six-game ban, it is reasonable to suggest Hyde will have surpassed him by season’s end.

Todd Gurley, Mark Ingram and Jordan Howard are all having superior seasons to Hyde but, with two of that trio potentially set to play in the postseason, it would be no surprise to see the 49ers’ starter — on pace for 1,385 yards from scrimmage — make it as an alternate.
