With all of the Cam Newton being the best rookie ever, I thought I'd look up some of the best rookies ever and make a poll.

Cam Newton: QB; 4051 Yards; 21 TD: 706 rushing Yards, 14 TD

Gale Sayers: RB; 867 Rushing Yards, 14 TD; 29 catches for 507 Receiving Yards and 6 TD's; 53 Passing Yards with 1 TD; 238 Punt Return Yards with 1 TD and 660 Kick Return Yards with 1 TD; All Together he had 2325 all purpose yards and 23 Total TD's in just 14 Games.

Edgerrin James: RB; 1553 Rushing Yards 13 TD; 62 catches for 586 yards and 4 TD.

Eric Dickerson: RB; 1808 Rushing Yards 18 TD; 51 catches for 404 yards and 2 TD.

Jevon Kearse: DE; 14.5 sacks, 8 forced fumbles; 1 fumble recovered and 1 TD. With 48 tackles.

Dick "Night Train" Lane: DB; 14 Interceptions for 298 yards and 2 TD's and 1 Safety in 12 games.

Lawrence Taylor: LB; 9.5 sacks, only rookie to be named Defensive Rookie of the Year AND Defensive Player of the Year in the same season.

Randy Moss: WR; 69 catches for 1313 Yards and 17 TD

Gale Sayers?

Anyways

I think it's between Dickerson and Night Train. Those are probably the 2 best ever IMO

So I looked it up.

When Night Train played for the Rams, opposing QB's attempted 362 passes (45 by Pitt!) and he intercepted 14 of them or about .04% of all attempted passes. (Or something like that)

AND with a 9-3 and an 0-1 post season record those LA Rams lost to Detroit 3 times in one season. Very Happy Ironically both teams only lost 1 game after the 2nd meeting.
