Fun game, I'll play.......

Team MVP Not Named Tom Brady:L.Blount, 18 TDs is crazy

Defensive Player of the Year: Malcolm Butler, still playing like a top CB in the league

Comeback Player of the Year: Dion Lewis, doesn't have the stats, but looks good in return
Nicest Surprise of the Year: tie, Malcolm Mitchell and Trey Flowers
Play of the Year: Brady fumble recovery TD pass to Mitchell at NYJ (great stuff)
Willie McGinest Leadership Award: Bennett, great locker room pickup
Disappointment of the Year: Gronk (obviously due to injury, but only 25 receptions from this matchup nightmare), non injury disappointment would be Logan Ryan (tough to replicate last year's success, but had to pick someone)

Edit: updated rookie of the year from Mitchell to Thuney after remembering he is a rookie

Eight responses, and not one vote for Jamie Collins for Disappointment of the Year"? I thought that one was a gimme!

Given he was sent to cleveland for some pocket lint and s bag of balls, i believe he is excluded.

To paraphrase BB, "I'll only evaluate players that are still on the team."

Hmm, I don't think I can get on board with this one. If we're saying "most disappointing player to remain on BB's roster" we might as well go with "most improved player to be cut and out of football."

Collins started the year regarded as one of the team's top players and even a DPOY candidate, and he ended it shipped out of town for the aforementioned bag of lint balls. It's hard to get more disappointing than that.
