| 0:07.5 | The Kevin Sheehan Show is Kevin. |
| 0:10.2 | A weekend podcast for all of you, in part because I missed one on Wednesday, but really because I wanted to share with everybody an interview that I did the other day with longtime Baltimore Sun columnist |
| 0:22.2 | and reporter Don Marcus, and Dave Ungrady, Dave wrote the book on Len Bias called Born Ready. |
| 0:29.0 | And both of them have put together and produced an incredible podcast series, 12 parts called |
| 0:36.1 | Len Bias, A Mixed Legacy. You do not have to be a Maryland |
| 0:40.8 | basketball fan to, A, enjoy the interview that I did with them, I don't think, and then B, enjoy the |
| 0:46.6 | podcast series. So that's coming up here shortly with Don and with Dave. There are a few things |
| 0:54.1 | that I wanted to mention, though, here in the first segment of the show. |
| 0:58.1 | And that is that, number one, John Allen didn't make All-Pro. |
| 1:03.2 | In fact, he wasn't even close to making All-Pro. |
| 1:07.5 | The All-Pro Interior defensive linemen are Aaron Donald obviously makes the first team. Cam |

| 1:27.0 | Kenny Clark, Vita Vaya, and yes, John Allen. |
| 1:31.0 | Alan, Vea, and Clark all got two votes out of the 50 available. By the way, if you're wondering, |
| 1:38.5 | this is the Associated Press All-Pro First and Second Team. 50 media members vote on the All-Pro first and second team. Fifty media members vote on the all-pro first and second team every year. |
| 1:48.7 | It's not the Pro Bowl where you've got fan voting, you've got player voting, etc. |
| 1:53.0 | And it comes out before the season even ends. |
| 1:56.6 | This waits for the season to end. |
| 1:59.1 | And this is, I think, over the years, a much better reflection of the best players in the game. I thought John Allen would make one of the first two teams. I thought he would be a second team all pro. Aaron Donald's a given. I thought Jeffrey Simmons had a really good chance to make the first team. I think he's a monster in Tennessee. Hayward had a big time year, |
| 2:19.9 | and Chris Jones had a pretty good year, too, even though Jones actually missed three games. |
