Anyone who doesn’t have Micah number one is hating he was one of the best players much less rookies

    D D

    I agree but I could make a case for Holland. Dude was the 3rd beat safety in the league this year as a rookie. Not saying he is but I could make a argument for it.

    Bill.yop123

    Nah it’s close between him and chase

    Ethan Weeter

    @Bill.yop123 Chase had 1,400 yards on just like 75 catches and 14 TDs.

    Andersøn

    @Ethan Weeter also had joe throwing him the ball micah did all that by himself

    I Dont

    @Andersøn I mean, joe didn’t make outstanding catches, or turn a 3 yard pass into 75 yard td like chase does, so…..

J

Eli Mitchell deserves a shout out as a 6th round pick. Dude ATE this year

    Gavin Stevenson

    Who?

    John Yamamoto

    @Gavin Stevenson top 10 in rushing yards with missing 6 games and 4.7 ypc. Would be top 5 with Kyle’s offense if played all 17 games.
    Cowboys zeke played all 17 games and only had 40 more yard.

    John Yamamoto

    @Gavin Stevenson I’m guessing you’re a Steelers fan?

    Gavin Stevenson

    @John Yamamoto lmao buddy pulled the stat sheet out on me. Nah I’m not a Steelers fan

    maynard3legs

    @John Yamamoto he also broke the 49ers franchise single season rookie rushing record while missing those games….beast.

Flowbe

These rookies are great

Timmy G

Najee deserves some recognition. Top 5 in rushing(1,200 yards) with no fumbles behind arguably one of the worst O-Lines in football. 🖤💛.

    Carletio Seymour

    @Omar Evans more like the opposite

    Shrezzy0

    You’re crazy Najee is good but dude got a lot of Carries i would hope a RB that got that much carries would get that amount of yards

    Jake Foraker

    @Kevin Ngo look I love Jaylen Waddle but Najee was better

    18

    @Shwayzie just like Derrick Henry the past 4 years, but yes considered the best

    18

    @Dishonestcape 99 he’s the rb3 on his team😭

Gabriel Valles

Couldn’t be more proud as a Cowboys fan especially considering how excellent this rookie class was.

    L.M Moss

    He’s gonna be a beast next year I’m not gonna hype Myself but I do feel that we are gonna run it back one more time

    Bric

    @Phychedelic investor cry

Jack Wells

Genuinely a really really good list

Keyonta Moore

Pat Surtain?? 2nd lowest pass rating behind JC Jackson and led all rookies in INTs. Javonte Williams deserves some praise as well🧡💙

    Hidden For Suspense

    Who on this list did he do better than? Was he amazing? Absolutely… but all of these 5 rookies did better at their positions, and I’m sure there is still a couple others that would make it before him.

    Carlos Alberto Márquez Gallardo

    Tell me you are a broncos fan without tell me you are a broncos fan

    Keyonta Moore

    @Carlos Alberto Márquez Gallardo dude I put “🧡💙” in the comment for a reason💀, I will forever be a Denver fan throughout the awesome, good, bad, and the downright ugly seasons

    Caleb Davis

    Jerry Jacobs>>>

    Maxattack

    Terrel had a lower pass rating

ZZestial

Idk why we keep talking about Mac Jones as a rookie of the year when the only stat they show is the patriots record. They had a great defense and a decent run game this year, and no doubt mac jones preformed okay. But imo rookie of the year should be based off of individual stats i think he should even be in the top 5.

    Tubal Cain

    @Everyday Sports Mania lol Mac is trash. You might be able to get a 3rd rounder for him.

    Everyday Sports Mania

    @Tubal Cain bro are you freaking high? Mac is what is keeping the pats together. He’s the reason why we scored 17 yesterday. The defense lost us that game

    Tubal Cain

    @Everyday Sports Mania congrats on the 17 points.

    Landon

    @Everyday Sports Mania I agree 100% if you watch one Patriots game you can see how Mac Jones is performing, and as a Pats fan I can’t way to see him improve, he is starting to look like a young TB12

    Ethan Weeter

    @Landon I would not go that far. Good defense and good O-Line, decent receivers. They probably need better receivers though.

D D

Jevon Holland was 2nd team all pro as a rookie. So he should be on here for sure

    D D

    @Anthony Desenso Ow ya. For sure. One of the better class in the last few years.

    Anthony Desenso

    @D D plus ur draft class was sick u guys hit on all ur first round picks

    Anthony Desenso

    holland wasn’t a first but he was close enough

    D D

    @Anthony Desenso Forgot about that lol. I remember now thinking how the hell we got him in the 2nd. I’m glad to see so many rookies play well.

    Bill.yop123

    Yh 2021 class made up for those awful first round picks last few years w Jackson and Noah (and possibly tua)

Samuel C.

I’m a huge Ja’Marr Chase fan but this is a pretty good list, if they decide this is the way to go when deciding Rookie of the Year, I wouldn’t blame them, just got a ton of outstanding rookies this year

    The Mail Man

    Same

Jeovani Lael Robinson

God bless these rookies!

tmr9069

Gotta give some love to Amon-Ra St Brown from the crappy Lions. By week 8 he was the focus of the offense and the after Hockenson and Swift went down he was the only player defenses planned for. 90 recp, 912 yards and 5 TD’s. With the worst offense in the NFL.

    Caleb Davis

    Lions had the 22nd ranked offense this year, it was horrible at times but overall it was just an average offense. And like you said that’s without Swift and Hock for a long stretch of time. Plus add in they didn’t have the best Center in football play at all and you can see plenty of optimism for this offense next year. Especially if they could sign a Allen Robinson type guy or if they draft a Treylon Burks type guy, maybe one of the other WRs like Dotson or Williams. Just saying watch out for the lions in the next couple years, if Aaron is truly gone then it’s a toss up who wins this Division.

    nino_ shyno

    yes he is great but he isn’t greater than anybody on this list, Jaylen waddle had even a worse offense

    tmr9069

    @nino_ shyno I never said he should be on the top 5. Learn to read dude.

Dan Daniels

Love how they gave love to a Center!! The O-Line needs love too

Wirsz

this rookie class was very special this year.

Michael Davis

This draft class is stacked. There were many great players that could make this list and more that have flown under the radar: Devonta Smith, Rashawn Slater, Gregory Rousseau, Patrick Surtain II, Jaelen Phillips, Kyle Pitts, Jaevon Holland, Asante Samuel jr, Christian Barmore, Greg Newsome, Javonte Williams, Najee Harris, Amon-ra St. Brown, Elijah Mitchell, Kwity Paye, Christian Darrisaw. All of these guys have potential to be in this league for a long time, and who knows about the qbs besides Mac Jones. I can see Justin Fields, Trey Lance and Trevor Lawrence finding success someday. Also, how in the world was Creed Humphrey a 2nd round pick!?

    About_ Average

    Mills is another qb I see with potential

Steven Strange

Chase may have had the best rookie season for a receiver but what parsons is doing out there is insane, especially for a defensive rookie!

    8’9 female refrigerator

    Yeah, it’s a shame we don’t have a good coaching staff, we could be contenders if we knew how to play offense/call decent plays.

JB

Could easily be 4 Bama guys on this list. That’s wild!

Swag Man

Sure but how does this affect Jackson Mahomes legacy

Boomy

I think Devonta smith should get some recognition… I mean if jalen hurts actually targeted him more he mightve broke records… he broke and eagles record and he was barely targeted

Mediocrely_Extraordinary02

I know he only had 1 TD but Pitts breaking 1,000 yards as a rookie TE deserved some recognition
