I know it’s still early but if they keep their trajectory, my vote goes to CJ Stroud and Puka Nacua.
Jalen Carter is probably the right answer, none of the offensive players are putting up insane stats to beat out players with name Rec and the defensive part of the class has been super solid but very few are playing at all pro level and even less are being recognized as such. Carter is playing phenomenally, has name brand and has a highlight going around that’ll effect his voting and name ref even more
gibbs and la porta should be in this convo
Stroud, Witherspoon or Carter
Kincaid is finally starting to deliver on the hype. Last five games he’s had more catches, more yards and equal touchdowns as teammate Diggs. He’s not had the wide recognition LaPorta has had (slower out of the gate, fewer touchdowns) but he’s hitting his stride.
Brandon Aubrey.
Like this year?
Dawand Jones i would hope
CJ Stroud
None
Jalen Carter. Guy has been the best player on the field already in half the games he’s played in. Absolutely dominant monster.
Witherspoon has an outside shot.
Puka looked like he could but hasn’t been able to put up the same numbers when Kupp came back and Stafford got hurt. Still has an outside shot but hard to imagine he’d get it over guys like Lamb or Brown.
LaPorta has been one of the best TEs in the NFC too. He’ll contend for it but it’d be bold for me to act like he’s a lock for it
Brian Branch
Sam LaPorta. He’s got an even better chance now with Andrews out for the season too. All Pro generally goes to the 2 best players at their position and Puka is not getting it over Tyreek/AJ Brown.
There are 6 All-Pro WRs, actually. I agree that’s way too many but that’s the way it is.
With that in mind, Puka totally has an argument for top 6.
Probably Jalen carter and witherspoon. Two players that 100% deserve DROY it’s a shame only one can win. Both are insanely talented
