The Ultimate All-Aggie NFL Offensive Team - Who made the cut?
The Ultimate All-Aggie NFL Offensive Team - Who made the cut? Texas A&M has a strong history of producing elite NFL players who go on to have long, successful careers, some even earning Hall of Fame recognition. Over the years, the Aggies have seen 324 players drafted, including 46 Pro Bowl selections, 13 All-Pro honorees, and six Hall of Famers. While some picks are obvious, others spark debate depending on the era in which the player competed or whether they've had sufficient time in the league to be fairly evaluated. For this list, the only requirement is that active players must be key contributors. Beyond that, anyone who has been drafted is eligible. This selection process includes three teams - Offense, Defense, and Coaches (which also covers special teams) - along with honorable mentions. After reviewing the Aggies' All-NFL Offensive Team, let us know if you think any players should be swapped out.

Saunders: The Real Answer to the NFL MVP QB Debate is Neither
The Pro Football Writers of America will be releasing their on-field awards for the 2024 NFL season this week. As a proud member of the PFWA, and as a believer in transparency, I've included my votes for league awards, including NFL MVP, All-NFL, All-AFC and All-Rookie teams. Reminder that these are regular season awards only. MVP: Saquon Barkley, Philadelphia EaglesIf is was ever going to be a year where a quarterback doesn't win this award, what Saquon Barkley has done since moving to the Philadelphia Eagles should be worthy. Barkley is the best player on one of the league's best offenses. He and Derrick Henry have completely changed the narrative on the value of experienced running backs around the NFL. The Eagles are the only legitimate Super Bowl contender who could lose their quarterback and still be as good as they are. Offensive Player of the Year: Joe Burrow, Cincinnati BengalsJoe Burrow was the NFL leader in passing yards and touchdowns. I know the Bengals were not successful as a team, but Lamar Jackson certainly provides value with his running in addition to his passing stats, but I think Burrow's season deserves to be recognized. Defensive Player of the Year: T.J. Watt, Pittsburgh SteelersT.J. Watt almost certainly won't win, and he honestly probably doesn't even deserve a vote this year, but I couldn't find one contender I liked more than the others. Consider this a vote to attempt the right the cosmic injustice of last year's travesty. Rookie of the Year and Offensive Rookie of the Year: Jayden Daniels, Washington CommandersDefensive Rookie of the Year: Jared Verse, Los Angeles RamsComeback Player of the Year: Cam Heyward, Pittsburgh Steelers Most Improved Player of the Year: Sam Darnold, Minnesota VikingsCoach of the Year: Kevin O'Connell, Minnesota VikingsExecutive of the Year: Howie Roseman, Philadelphia EaglesAssistant Coach of the Year: Ben Johnson, Detroit Lions QB: Joe Burrow, Cincinnati BengalsRB: Saquon Barkley, Philadelphia Eagles; Derrick Henry, Baltimore RavensWR: Ja'Marr Chase, Cincinnati Bengals; Justin Jefferson, Minnesota VikingsTE: Brock Bowers, Las Vegas RaidersOT: Jordan Mailata, Philadelphia Eagles; Penei Sewell, Detroit LionsOG: Chris Lindstrom, Atlanta Falcons; Quenton Nelson, Indianapolis ColtsC: Creed Humphrey, Kansas City ChiefsDT: Chris Jones, Kansas City Chiefs; Cam Heyward, Pittsburgh SteelersDE: Trey Hendrickson, Cincinnati Bengals; Myles Garrett, Cleveland BrownsOLB: T.J.
