First-time voter. Ballot's due tomorrow. Don't have to submit a full one but I certainly would like to. Anyone have suggestions or guys they'd like to stump for?

Take a close look at Tennessee LB Jerod Mayo.

Mayo's real good but there seems to be an abundance of worthy candidates at LB...
 
I'll throw in a Glenn Dorsey (DT) and LaRon Landry (FS) endorsement (LSU). Ask Dennis Dodd and Ivan Maisel if you don't want to take my word for it.

LB: Paul Posluszny, Penn State.
LB: Dan Connor, Penn State.
LB: Sean Lee, Penn State.

And you don't know how close I am to being serious.

Good thing ballots are due before Saturday. Ringing up 25 sacks against Bama might skew the voting just a bit.

Yet none of those three are as good as Ole Miss's Patrick Willis.
 
I'll give you one -- ONE -- of those three. The first two are clearly better than Willis.
 
CB: Damieon Hughes, California. Being a lock-down corner in the Pac-10 is no small feat.
DE: Mkristo Bruce, Washington State. 10 sacks on one good leg, carried injury-plagued D-line.

Posluszny is a tough SOB. Isn't he still slowed down a little by the knee injury at the end of last season?
 
Was ... he isn't anymore.

If I didn't know previous track record was a factor, in a perfect world, Connor would be ranked higher this year. He has been an absolute animal.

Yeah, when I've seen them this year, Conner impressed me more.
 
Thing was, he was always supposed to be this good, out of high school.

Last year was essentially a lost season for him because he missed the first 3-4 games for that ugly crank-calling episode.
