GIF NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Nomination Thread

We thought it would be cool to have our own NFL awards here at GIF. I will post the nomination threads where members can nominate players for each award. The thread will be left up for a few days, then I'll post a vote thread so everyone can vote on the nominees. The winners will be posted after the polls close, and we can seed how close GIF's predictions are to the real thing.

Nominate your defensive rookie if the year here.

Current Nominations:
Janoris Jenkins
Casey Heyward
Fletcher Cox
Vantaze Burfict
Luke Kuechly
Harrison Smith

The nomination threads are now closed. I want to thank everyone for nominating the players, coaches, and executives they think are deserving of these awards. The response to this has been outstanding and better than I even expected.

The voting threads will be set up tomorrow night, so everyone make sure you remember to come back and vote for who you think is most deserving of each award.
