We had a total of 23 votes cast for the All Pro Ballot. Two people skipped question #10 altogether, so that leaves 21 votes for the rookies and coach of the year. I wrote everything in a hurry, because I was running behind, like normal, and I think that caused a couple of errors in write in votes. We had 4 people either not include the MVP's, or listing 2 offensive/defensive rookies in order to give me 5 names. One owner sent me a PM to give me his MVP votes, which were included in the final tally. The owners who submitted 2 offensive and defensive rookies, I only counted the first rookie listed in each category.
The leading vote getters were Oakland LB Victor Thomas and DE John Pursel of Denver with 20 votes each, while Tampa's DE Eric Rodriguez and WR Jake Peralta of Denver had 19 each. Mark McKeon was in 3rd place among DE voting with 17.
Most races weren't, as a lot of votes weren't very close at all. Tight End was the closest race, with Baltimore's Jose Gough edging Tampa Bay's Burt Johnston 11-10. The same held true for question #10 as the only close vote was for Offensive MVP. Jake Peralta received 5 votes, edging out Cam Dalton, who had 4. Tony Dean and Andrew Brewer had 3 each while Mark Lambert had 2 votes and Nicholas Dorey 1.
