I think anyone that plays primarily H-back gets put in the "fullback" category, since he technically lines up in the backfield most of the time.
He does have very good stats compared to most of those fullbacks, and I think he deserves a vote. Cooley's one of the few players on this offensive team about whom we haven't had many bad things to say, and he's certainly been one of the only consistently good players, providing several of the rare highlights on that side of the ball.
As far as Pro Bowl players coming from losing teams, I don't think you can point a finger at Cooley for any blame in the Skins' losses. But he definitely played a big part in the wins this season, so I think you can make a valid case for him being in the Pro Bowl, despite his team's record.
