The Associated Press 2008 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year Is Matt Ryan.

Posted by David (aka David) Dec 30 '08, 09:01

Ryan collected 44 votes, far in front of Titans running back Chris Johnson with three. Broncos tackle Ryan Clady had two and Bears running back Matt Forte got one.

The balloting doesn�t indicate the outstanding depth of the rookie class on offense. Running backs Steve Slaton of Houston, Tim Hightower of Arizona, Ray Rice of Baltimore, Jonathan Stewart of Carolina, Felix Jones and Tashard Choice of Dallas, Peyton Hillis of Denver, Kevin Smith of Detroit and Jamaal Charles of Kansas City all were contributors. So were wide receivers Eddie Royal of Denver, DeSean Jackson of Philadelphia, Davone Bess of Miami and Donnie Avery of St. Louis.

Another rookie quarterback, Joe Flacco of Baltimore, helped lead his team into the playoffs.

Add in tight ends John Carlson of Seattle and Dustin Keller of the Jets and the strength of the first-year crop is impressive.

And Ryan was the cream.

Very nice. And I'm very pleased to see my boy Clady got a couple votes. - Jim Dec 30, 09:38
I think they beat Arizona. Then they have the real test, be it NY or Carolina. -- nm - Shaun - 2008 Caveman Champion Dec 30, 09:02 2
- We're bottom quarter in pass defense and Kurt Warner is 7-1 against us. This game could be an upset. -- nm - David Dec 30, 09:04 1
  - This is my thinking. Need Turner to dominate time of possession game. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Dec 30, 09:18
