Jerry Rice got his 2014 Pro Bowl squad off to a good start by tabbing Drew Brees and Robert Quinn as his Team Rice captains prior to the start of the event's fantasy draft Tuesday. He continued to strengthen his team with the likes of tight end Jimmy Graham and running back LeSean McCoy to make the offense even more potent, along with outside linebacker Brian Orakpo and cornerback Joe Haden to support Quinn's pass-rushing abilities.
Team Rice's Day 2 selections join the interior linemen and specialists who were selected Day 1 of the draft Tuesday. Going up against Team Rice will be the likes of Cam Newton, Jamaal Charles and J.J. Watt from Team Sanders.
The Pro Bowl will kick off at Aloha Stadium in Hawaii this Sunday at 7 p.m. ET. The game will be televised on NBC.
