Demeco getting some love: Fox Sports 2006 NFL Predictions ...Super Bowl Panthers over Bengals MVP Carson Palmer will win it over Donovan McNabb and Tom Brady Defensive Player of the Year My curveball pick, Julian Peterson, will win it just ahead of Ed Reed and Shawne Merriman. Offensive Rookie of the Year DeAngelo Williams will win it, beating out Marcedes Lewis and Greg Jennings. Defensive Rookie of the Year Demeco Ryans will win it (Not fellow Texan Mario Williams!) ahead of Kamerion Wimbley and Manny Lawson. Coach of the Year Cincy's Marvin Lewis.
That would be nice. A good year from the middle linebacker would help this team with run defense something they couldn't do worth a flip last season. Mario- dude needs to get his motor running and get after the QB
Definitely would be a good thing. For Demeco to get the ROY, he would turn a weakness to a strength and the Texans would need some coverage as having a good defense. I'd have no problem if Mario beat him out, but I don't see Mario having a good shot at DROY while not playing RDE near fulltime. I have no problem with the Texans moving Mario around as long as the Texans get the best production as they can from their line.
Just looked at ESPN's predictions: Scouts Inc. has Mario Williams as a DROY and Michael Smith has Demeco Ryans as his favorite to win it.
So, we coulda got the offensive rookie of the year (Reggie Bush) AND the defensive rookie of the year in the same draft? I think i'm gonna be ill.
i thought i was reading a prediction, not a End of the Year Awards Ceremony results. weird. can you tell me when did Bush win offensive rookie of the year?
It would be great if Ryans got the award. Mario is huge and fast....he is definately going to be a factor in our season. It just means that we have revamped the Defense, which we needed desperately.
geez man do you just make stupid posts and never say anything after that? you could also look at it like we got the 2 best defensive players in the draft, but you gotta troll.
Super Bowl- Panthers over Dolphins MVP- Larry Johnson 1,700yds 25tds D.P.O.Y.- Dwight Freeney 16 sacks ( 6 on Carr) O.R.O.Y.- REGGIE BUSH D.R.O.Y.- AJ Hawk Coach of Year- Nice Saban (12-4)
Interesting that you accept their Defensive ROY prediction (Ryans) but substitute your own Offensive ROY. If you're using his predictions, Reggie Bush isn't even in the top 3.
WOW. You guys are acting like me predicting Reggie Bush to win offensive rookie of the year to be a stretch. What a wild and outlandish prediction by me. Come on guys, i'm a member of a few good NFL football boards and nowhere do I see the hate for Reggie Bush and running backs in general than I do on this board, it is truely unreal. And most of the hate comes from UT fans. Bias, maybe? Here are Vegas' odds for offensive rookie of the year, I can't believe I made such an outlandish prediction. What has gotten into me? Am I Insane? 2006-07 AP NFL offensive Rookie of the Year (All Bets Action) 12-31-06 12:00 PM D Brickashaw Ferguson 50-1 Jay Cutler 50-1 Matt Leinart 20-1 Vince Young 15-1 Joseph Addai 5-1 Reggie Bush 2-1 Laurence Maroney 7-1 DeAngelo Williams 8-1 Maurice Drew 22-1 LenDale White 5-1 Brian Calhoun 40-1 Jerious Norwood 40-1 PJ Daniels 35-1 Leon Washington 35-1 Jerome Harrison 35-1 Wali Lundy 35-1 Quinton Ganther 35-1 Cedric Humes 40-1 Vernon Davis 8-1 Mercedes Lewis 18-1 Joe Klopfenstein 30-1 Santonio Holmes 5-1 Devin Hester 50-1 Chad Jackson 15-1 Greg Jennings 15-1 Jason Avant 15-1 Jeremy Bloom 40-1 Sinorice Moss 20-1 Derek Hagan 30-1 Willie Reid 50-1 Maurice Stovall 50-1 Brandon Williams 60-1 Travis Wilson 50-1
Sorry for making the stupid post. Now please send Vegas a message and tell them to stop making stupid predictions on who will win offensive rookie of the year.
jgreen, how were you able to hack into the oddsmakers computers like that? That's what I want to know.
