Yeldon is probably going to start at the RB position in a system where we are going to run a lot and take a lot of pressure off of a young QB. With the improved offensive line and rookie RBs usually being the easiest learning curve, you think Yeldon has a [BLEEP] against Winston, Cooper, etc?
Let's pump the brakes a bit, shall we?

TJ Yeldon is going to be a HOFer, I just know it.

Why not OROY and DROY? Throw in MVP too.
Oh boy.
How about we wait until we actually see him in a game first?


If either of the first round QB's do well, they'll most likely get it.  

A lot of competition for OROY this year. Cooper, White, Gurley, Gordon, Parker, Perriman Winston, Mariota...and that's just a sample of this deep offensive rookie class.
I vote Sterling.. Those Monmouth guys can ball..
Do they have a Practice Squad Offensive ROY? If not, they needs one..


Or a UDFAPSOROY?

Can't be MVP.  That's going to be Bortles.


OROY is going to be Yeldon

DROY is going to be Fowler

MVP is Bortles

Coach of the Year is Gus Bradley


Jags go 16-0, and then defeat the Indianapolis Colts in the Divisional Round 70-0, then we beat the Patriots in the Conference Championship 35-0, and then finally beat the Seahawks in the Super Bowl in a low scoring game of 28-0, and the 72' Dolphins welcome a new team into the club, and put down the champagne.
He's #3 in fantasy rankings for rookies on NFL.com. So at least the perception is there.   

PFT has a new poll.  They list 5 first round players.  No mention of T.J. Yeldon,  Ameer Abdullah,  Tevin Coleman,  or anyone else that wasn't selected in Round 1:

Yeldon should be included based on the fact that he'll be getting as much volume as those other guys (more than Gurley I bet), but I get why they stuck to the first round also.

At the very least,  they probably should have added ' Other'  as a choice.   ' Other' probably would have received at least 25 % of the vote.

True, an other category would have been sufficient.
I honestly don't even think it's far fetched. I get it, one person hopes on the train and "all aboard" but we can all make preseason predictions. Yeldon will get a bunch of carries in a run-oriented offense. Running backs and QBs usually get this award. Yeldon outplayed Eddie Lacey his Freshmen year and Lacey won OROY. He can ball.
I hope Yeldon has a good Madden rating.

Ugh. I'm hoping at least an 88 speed. Otherwise I gotta put Robinson in there.

Nah hes gonna be worse than that. All they look at is 40 time for rookies. Luckily last year was the last year I wasted my money on that garbage. The game has just got worse and worse since 08. Not falling for their trap anymore.
