Offense

QB Andrew Luck Indianapolis (Stanford) - Luck had another big comeback year and got the Colts into the Playoffs, overtaking Aaron Rodgers as the Pac-12 best QB alum, for now.

RB Christian McCaffrey Carolina (Stanford) - The Stanford alum came alive this year, rushing for more than 1,000 yards while receiving for more than 800 yards and scoring 13 TDs.

RB Phillip Lindsay Denver (Colorado) - The rookie from Colorado shocked everyone except Buffs fans when he broke out in his first year in the league, rushing for more than 1,000 yards and scoring 10 total TDs.

WR JuJu Smith-Schuster Pittsburgh (USC) - Blossomed into one of the league’s best receivers in just his second season, finishing with more than 100 receptions for more than 1,400 yards and seven TDs.

WR Robert Woods Rams (USC) - The other former USC stud receiver had a great year in his own right with a career year of more than 80 receptions for 1,219 yards and seven total TDs as one of Jared Goff’s best weapons.

TE Zach Ertz Philadelphia (Stanford) - Ertz overtook Gronk as the Pac-12 best tight end and it wasn’t an easy task, racking up more than 100 receptions for 1,163 yards and eight TDs.

T David Bakhtiari Green Bay (Colorado) - He has quickly turned into one of the league’s best tackles in just a few years out of playing in Boulder.

Defense

CB Chidobe Awuzie Dallas (Colorado) - Pac-12 fans shouldn’t be surprised that this Colorado alum has quickly turned into a standout at the next level.
