AWARDS

MVP: Aaron Rodgers

I’m not going out on any limbs here; the Packers will be dominant and Rodgers will win.

OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE YEAR: Antonio Brown

No Martavis Bryant means more targets and possibly a reception record for Brown.

DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE YEAR: Khalil Mack

After finishing second in sacks last season, Mack’s progress continues with a better supporting cast.

OFF ROOKIE OF THE YEAR: Ezekiel Elliott

Running behind the best front in the NFL gives him the easy edge.

DEF ROOKIE OF THE YEAR: Darron Lee

Lee might sack the quarterback a lot this year in Todd Bowles blitz heavy defense.
