Defensive player of the year: Kansas City linebacker Derrick Johnson

He is one of the more underrated players in the NFL. He is a tackling machine and a timely playmaker. Johnson was brilliant in 2011 as he had a career-high 131 tackles. Along with fellow Pro Bowl linebacker Tamba Hali, Johnson is the centerpiece to a potentially standout defense.

SCHWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!
Phillip Rivers for OPOY?
I would give Jamaal with his torn ACL

the award before mister 27-20.

He had a bad year for him, but he did still throw for 4600 yards and 27 TD.

Remember our all world QB when he lit the world on fire with 3100 yards and 27 TD’s

I hope Hudson is good
Offensive rookie of the year: Oakland guard Stefen Wisniewski

Wisniewski looked like he was a 10-year veteran as a rookie. He is a natural player who is both athletic and intelligent. Born to be a Raider as the nephew of former Raiders great offensive lineman and current assistant coach Steve Wisniewski, Stefen Wisniewski upheld his family name well. There were times in the season when he simply took over. He was a steal at the No. 48 overall pick.
He went before Hudson though, right?
Hudson was 7 picks later (55).
