Josh Allen will have a statistical case to lean on if he were a candidate for this award.

The Bills quarterback has sat at the top or near the top in box score stats and underlying metrics alike the past few seasons .

Bijan Robinson should be the Falcons running back with Todd Gurley and Kyren Williams playing heavy-snap roles.

Marvin Harrison Jr. is as pro-ready as you’ll see at the receiver position.

Byron Murphy is a different type of flavor than the rest of the Seahawks ' front that features a lot of rugged types.

Mike Macdonald is an effective and respected coach who has built an interesting staff around him.

Kyler Murray , QB, Cardinals +2000, is the dark horse in the NFC East .

The Cardinals' offense was inconsistent at times last year as he shook rust off, but Murray looked more locked into the pre-snap and processing aspects of quarterback play than I have ever seen.

Dallas Cowboys +170 NFC East : Dallas Cowboys -170 NFC West.

NFC North: Green Bay Packers +210 NFC South: Tampa Bay Buccaneers +300 AFC South .
