Alright, awards!
Offensive Player of the Year: QB Blake Bortles. He broke his records all over the place and was the best in the league at numerous stats. At a time when he was nursing an injury for weeks, and he had rotating receivers all over, he was still racking up TDs, yards, and wins.
Defensive Player of the Year: CB Bryan Meadows. He had a very compelling season, including a Defensive Player of the Week award for the league. He won the All Pro award on the back of the last two weeks when he notched 3 picks and 1 fumble recovery, three of which were brought back for scores. But that stuff counts!
Special Teams Player of the Year: RB Reggie Brooks, he had good solid Punt returns averages, a score, and was a strong contributor on special teams all year long. Thanks buddy!
Rookie of the Year: OT Myron Starks – Sure, he was a highly touted 1st rounder, but he had a pretty strong rookie campaign anyway. Just three sacks allowed? 21 KRB and 1 pancake? That’s not a bad place to start at all. Especially the low sacks. He had a better season as a rookie than Goldhammer ever had in three seasons.
Heart Award: SE Roman Fahey, this 6th rounder was a great addition to the club, and when the big names were faltering, he really brought some aerial magic to the game. He ended with 622 yards and 4 scores – that’s a very good campaign for a 6th rounder, rookie, 5th on the depth chart sort of guy. And frankly, he pushed Myron for Rookie of the Year award. Meanwhile, 2nd year 6th rounder and last year’s Heart Award winner WR Donnie Crawford, fully developed, 4th on the depth chart, and even with a start or two in there, only managed 258 yards and 3 scores.
