Brandon Lloyd can add All-Pro recognition to his growing list of 2010 accomplishments.
The wide receiver, already in Hawaii for his first Pro Bowl after a career season, has been named a second-team All-Pro by the Associated Press.
Lloyd set career highs in 2010 with 77 catches for a league-leading 1,448 yards and 11 touchdowns. The eight-year veteran averaged a 18.8 yards per catch to lead the NFL.
He became the first Bronco to lead the league in receiving yards and just the second player in NFL history to post his first 1,400-yard receiving campaign in his eighth season or later.
Atlanta’s Roddy White and Indianapolis’ Reggie Wayne earned the wide receiver spots on the first team. Kansas City’s Dwayne Bowe and Detroit’s Calvin Johnson joined Lloyd on the second team.
This marks the eighth consecutive season that the Broncos have had at least one representative on the Associated Press NFL All-Pro teams. Lloyd is the first Broncos wide receiver to receive the honor since Rod Smith made the second team in 2001.
Champ Bailey received two votes at cornerback, placing him tied for eighth at the position. The top four vote-getting cornerbacks earned All-Pro recognition.

Congrats once again Brandon Lloyd. This was your breakout year and you deserve to go. Have a great time in Hawaii and in this historic game.
Well deserved! Congrats Lloyd

great job Lloyd!! Champ was screwed.
Lloyd, the very best WR in the game, he is awesome.
Congrats to Lloyd,he proved to the world,he is a top notch WR!!!
CHAMP GOT THE SHAFT!!!
olap says something positive? what happened to “go reskinds”? TRB out…
Big congrats to Lloyd. Very much deserved!! So glad he’s a Bronco!
GO BRONCOS IN 2011!!!!!!
Congrats to our Spiderman for this second team all pro selection! No one makes as many acrobatic catches as you do, definitely the most fun to watch player on our O outside of Tebow. Hope you connect just as well with him all season long as you did with Orton, whom you said throws one of the easiest ball to catch, probably not quite the case with Tebow but you have a whole off season to get used to it. Here is to you making first team all pro next year!
What is up Bronco Nation? Glad to see some of the regulars still around. I just can’t mess w/these boards during the season. Too much Negativity for this orange kool-aid drinkin homer.
Good ‘Ish LLoyd!! Glad to see you finally getting the recognition you deserve. Hope to see more next year after you and Tebow build some chemistry. I agree that champ got screwed. I know the numbers don’t show it (45 tackles, 2ints, 13 passes defensed, 1 sack), but he had one hell of a shut-down season. Can’t really get a ton of Picks with no pass-rush.
I see big thangs commin from this franchise in the next couple of years, so ye Bronco faithful don’t give up those season tickets just yet!!
Aiight Donkies…
I’m out!!
congrats B Lloyd!
