A little break from the other stuff going on.
Quarterback: Ryan Tannehill, MIA (+9.9)
It feels odd to be going in a different direction from Tom Terrific, but his erratic play at this point has left the door wide open for the second year Dolphins quarterback to squeeze in. The highs have been higher for Brady, but the consistent play of the Miami man earns him the nod…for now.
Running Back: Fred Jackson, BUF (+1.6)
It wasn’t easy. There’s a real lack of contenders for this spot but Jackson, outside of two fumbles, is the stand out candidate.
Tight End: Jeff Cumberland, NYJ (-2.0)
With Rob Gronkowski not playing enough snaps it was really slim pickings at tight end. So, after avoiding a full back I had to go with one and Cumberland is the best of a bad bunch.
Wide Receivers: Brian Hartline, MIA (+7.3), Danny Amendola, NE (+3.6) and Stevie Johnson, BUF (+2.1)
Hartline has benefited from the presence of Mike Wallace and has continued his productive ways. After that things got a little murkier, though Johnson deserves credit for the job he has done with the quarterbacks the Bills have used. The last choice was always going to be a slot receiver and but for injury Brandon Gibson would be that guy. Here’s hoping Amendola can stay healthy.
Note: The AFC North is dropping the FB and running 3-wide for the purposes of the All-Division team to reflect the performance of both positions.
Tackles: Nate Solder, NE (+19.8) and Austin Howard, NYJ (+7.4)
If not for injury this would be an all Patriots unit, but I’m sticking with a policy that if you’re on injured reserve it’s best to let sleeping dogs lie. Instead Solder, our top ranked tackle, is partnered by Austin Howard who has developed into as consistent a linemen as the Jets have.
Guards: Richie Incognito, MIA (+6.3) and Kraig Urbik, BUF (+3.8)
Despite whatever is written about Incognito with his off the field behavior, he has played pretty well on the field. We’ll leave it at that with Logan Mankins letting himself down in pass protection to such a level I can’t choose him. Urbik is the right guard and owes a debt of gratitude to the ability of Willie Colon to keep drawing flags.
Center: Mike Pouncey, MIA (+7.9)
Nick Mangold has seen his form desert him and Pouncey is priming to set him up as the division’s top center. Pouncey really doesn’t get the respect he’s due.
