Mid Season Fantasy Awards

Most Valuable Player: Drew Brees
This is an easy one as Brees has been consistent each week with 300 yard games and multiple touchdowns. Move over Peyton Manning as Brees has passed him and Tom Brady due to injury as the top QB.

Most Valuable Non-QB: Clinton Portis
No Tomlinson, No Adrian Peterson, No Randy Moss, No Terrell Ownes, No Braylon Edwards, they all have "stunk" through the first half of the season. Portis has had 100 yard games and TDs and has been a solid performer week to week. It may even be time to think about trading him at his high as he is getting up there in age and his value is at an all time high.

Rookie of the Year: Chris Johnson
Another easy choice, many would have picked Darren McFadden or Jonathan Stewart, but Chris Johnson will be a first round draft pick in all leagues next season and looks like the real deal fantasy stud. Honorable Mention goes to Matt Ryan and Matt Forte.

Biggest Surprise Fantasy Player: Roddy White
Its rare that a team with a rookie QB puts up the stats on a consistent basis as Roddy White has, but again scored a TD this week and has been a solid performer all season. He is this years version of Braylon Edwards who scores every week.

Should you trade Randy Moss for Clinton Portis?
