Elvis was a no-brainer. He was the best D-lineman in the NFL this season.

Dawkins? Guess the AP didn’t watch the last half of the season. Dawkins had a very good year, but All Pro? Must have been a real down year for safety play across the league.

I'm so angry at the Broncos right now.

polamalu was injured most of the year, sanders was injured most of the year — a couple others were as well

Don't forget about Ed Reed.

He was out for awhile as well.

And all with a broken hand! Too! Dawkins' play as well as his leadership was enough.

In his first season with Denver after signing with the club as an unrestricted free agent following 13 years with the Eagles, Dawkins was voted a captain by his teammates and selected as a starter to his eighth Pro Bowl (tied for third in NFL history at the safety position)… He started in all 16 games and finished second on the club with 116 tackles (95 solo) while pacing the team with three fumble recoveries… He was the club’s recipient of the Ed Block Courage Award.

They certainly deserve it.

Congratulations Dawk and Doom.

Ed Block Courage Award

What a great honor. This puts him in exclusive company with Michael Vick. Seriously though B-Dawk is a very deserving recipient for his community work.

Congrat to both Doom and BDawk.

The both played well and Doom showed that he can thrive even when we changed the type of defense we use. Dawkins was the leader on our defense and was a big help despite how we finished. Job well done for both individuals.
