Id have to go Thuney as well, but this is looking like one of BB's better drafts top to bottom, Cyrus the Virus not withstanding.

Mitchell. It took awhile for him to get going, but he is really good both as a receiver and as a blocker. #2 Roberts, #3 Valentine.

I'm actually kind of shocked by the Thuney love here. He is a liability in pass-pro and I thought LG should the top priority in the off-season.

Thuney just hit the rookie wall. He's going to be very good next year and beyond. Just watch.

Thuney had the better year. Mitchell might end up being the better player.

Cyrus Jones wins the Eric Gagne memorial championship player award, hopefully he gets his confidence back this offseason.

Mitchell had some huge catches tonight in the biggest game of the year. Thuney is the runner up for sure and Roberts definitely gets third. Jonathan Jones was great in spots. Cyrus Jones not so much.

I can understand the emotional votes for MM considering the 4th quarter we just watched, but Thuney is the clear and obvious choice.

Thuney probably is the consistency choice, Mitchell is the rising star who really began to shine as the season came to a close. The latter is what I really like to see in a Rookie so I'm giving it to Malcolm.

This is unofficial AF, posters are free to pick on whatever criteria they like. I do this to see who SoSH is excited about. Inside the Pylon can make an official award/ranking if something more serious is needed.

Any of the non-Mitchell/Thuney voters want to add their $.02?

Thuney played almost every snap, and for the most part, we never heard his name called. Honorable mention to MM.
He pancaked someone on a big play by White during overtime. Noticed that again watching the highlights today.

Definitely Thuney for the whole season, but both great finds.

for me, hard to say Thuney when in 2/3 playoff games he was a turnstile for significant portions.

Mitchell is likely the Amendola replacement next year. good timing

Thuney/Mitchell not a bad return for Chandler Jones after moving some picks around.

1. Thuney, 2. Mitchell

Other guys have had their moments though.

Vincent Valentine, Jacoby Brissett, Jonathan Jones.
