This is the weekly awards watch. These are the leading contenders for each of the major awards, as well as runners-up. Check out the URL for the full article.
Offensive Rookie of the Year
1. Matt Ryan, QB, Atlanta Falcons - In Peter King's weekly mailbag, he made the point that Ryan should get MVP consideration. While I wouldn't put him that far, his performance against Oakland was indeed masterful.
2. Chris Johnson, RB, Tennessee Titans - Johnson has his best dual-threat game of the season, picking up a team-high six receptions for 72 yards to go along with his nice rushing total.
3. DeSean Jackson, WR, Philadelphia Eagles - Jackson had a quiet week, but remains the rookie leader in receiving.

Mock Drafts have the Eagles going after DeSean Jackson
A few weeks ago, I wrote an article about peaking into the Mock Drafts to see who the Eagles might consider taking in the 2008 NFL Draft. Well it seems that NFL Draft Countdown has gotten word of my prediction and now has the Eagles taking DeSean Jackson with the 17th pick instead of USC OT Sam Baker.
Can DeSean Jackson Be Another Donte Stallworth?
Does DeSean Jackson bring back memories of an Eagles' receiver from a few years back?
No not T.O., but Donte Stallworth.
Stallworth and Jackson are both considered undersized for the wide receiver position. Stallworth at 6ft, 200 pounds. Jackson at 5'11" and 172 pounds. Give Jackson a few years in the weight room and 200 pounds is not out of the question for him...

Forget Manny, I'm sick of Papelbon being Papelbon; Brady being Brady; Matt Ryan being Brady; and I'm already tired of KG being, well, KG circa 1994 and his senior year at Farragut Career Academy.

2008 NFL Draft Pick Comparisons

DeSean Jackson
Not sure why, but DeSean Jackson wasn't on the field during the past Cal scoring drive. He also wasn't in on Cameron Morrah's touchdown catch. He was on the field for the punt that preceded the last possession.
Time to step up, Chris Henry
The Titans' decision to draft a fellow Chris (Chris Johnson) in the first round a few weeks ago should have been a message heard loud and clear by Chris Henry.
Despite being a second round draft selection in 2007, Henry is going to have his work cut out for him as he attempts to become a part of the Titans' running game next season and beyond.

Well, it is 12:30 in the afternoon after the Birds' Monday Night Football game versus the Cowboys and I am finally waking up. I've been at work since before 8am but the coffee and breakfast bar didn't do anything for me. I would like to attribute the "hangover" to massive amounts of alcohol consumption, but in reality, it is the loss to our hated rival and...
