If you had a choice of being a trophy winner in college or HOF in the NFL, what would you chose? Both would be nice, but...

Tebow was still good this year, but not as...

should be suh , will be mccoy imo.

And then you have guys like Carson Palmer, Ricky Williams, Charles Woodson, Eddie George, Tim Brown, Bo Jackson, Herschel...

Suh should win, Ingram will.

This guy earlier was being interviewed on who he voted for and said Ingram only faced 1 top 40 run defense in the nation and only 3 top 50. Which means not very good defenses. Gerhart should've won.
