OFFENSE
TE: Evan Engram, Ole Miss
Through the first half of the season, Engram doesn't just lead all SEC tight ends in receiving yards. He leads all players with 590 yards on 37 receptions. He's also tops in the league with 12 receptions of 20 or more yards. -- Greg Ostendorf
OT: Cam Robinson, Alabama
Like last season, the future first-round pick has started out slowly. But Alabama's production in the run game, ranking fourth in the country and leading the SEC in rushing yards, speaks for itself. -- Alex Scarborough
OG: Braden Smith, Auburn
The Tigers are second in the SEC in rushing despite losing their three top running backs from a season ago. Why? It starts up front with the offensive line, and Smith has been the best of the bunch. -- Greg Ostendorf
C: Ethan Pocic, LSU
Although the senior ranks among the top centers in the country, his ability to play every line position has come in handy lately. Injuries along LSU's offensive line have forced Pocic to fill in at right tackle. -- David Ching
DEFENSE
DL: Myles Garrett, Texas A&M
A lower leg injury slowed him recently but even with that, he has been an impact player, picking up a team-high four sacks, six tackles for loss, six quarterback hurries, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery. -- Sam Khan
DL: : Montravius Adams, Auburn
Everybody wants to talk up Carl Lawson on the outside, but Adams has been just as disruptive on the inside. The senior has four tackles for loss, 2.5 sacks, eight quarterback hurries and recently scored his first career touchdown. -- Greg Ostendorf
DL: Derek Barnett, Tennessee
Barnett is pushing for SEC Player of the Year honors with six sacks (all in SEC play), 11.5 TFLs, five QB hurries, three passes defended, one interception and two forced fumbles. He helped force two turnovers against Alabama. -- Edward Aschoff
LB: Reuben Foster, Alabama
Middle linebacker didn't drop off when Reggie Ragland left. If anything, Foster is even more athletic and covers more of the field, leading Alabama with 41 tackles. -- Alex Scarborough
CB: Minkah Fitzpatrick, Alabama
He plays a little cornerback, a little nickel back and a whole lot of defense. The true sophomore mixes instincts and training well, leading the team in interceptions and passes defended. -- Alex Scarborough
CB: Jalen Tabor, Florida
One of the nation's best cover corners, Tabor hasn't been thrown at a lot, but when he has, he's taken full advantage. He has defended five passes, but four of them have been interceptions, including one going back for a touchdown against Missouri. -- Edward Aschoff
SPECIAL TEAMS
K: Daniel Carlson, Auburn
He's no longer perfect on field goals, but 13 of 14 is still pretty good, especially when you consider his only miss came from 56 yards out. For the year, he's still 2 of 3 on kicks from 50 yards or more. -- Greg Ostendorf
AP: Eddie Jackson, Alabama
Whether it's in the return game or at safety, Jackson is the epitome of a playmaker. The senior already has a pair of punt return touchdowns and one pick-six to go with his 21 tackles. -- Alex Scarborough

Sports Illustrated has LSU with 2 of 4 secondary players in the 2nd team all american list and 2 hogs on 2nd team all american list as well
only one player, Foster, made the first or 2nd team for Sports Illustrator. I like that team better.
\
Tabor and Ingram are first teamers on both lists
NO fricking way Cam is a first team all american.

Not even kidding, Williams deserves this more than Robinson so far this year.
Posted on 10/19/16 at 3:58 pm to SECdragonmaster
Switch Tabor for Wilson. He has been better this year.

No Arden Key or Tredavious White on first team no care.

living in alabama, auburn defiantly knows a thing or two about being runner ups
Posted on 10/19/16 at 5:06 pm to vengeanceofrain
J. Adams is hands down the best safety in the country.
They gave some guy from Washington the nod over Adams and he only has 29 tackles. Adams has 45 and a forced fumble

Quincy Wilson deserves it over Tabor

Arden "I got the" Key didn't make it?
Posted on 10/19/16 at 5:51 pm to Farmer1906
Tre White over Minkah Fitzpatrick

Cam Robinson hasn't been the best tackle on his own team. Uninformed garbage for the most part. They are right about Reuben and Eddie though.
Posted on 10/19/16 at 7:42 pm to Bham Bammer
I know it's the punter position but they blew it on the punter. Cam Johnston averages 50.8 a punt but doesn't have enough punts to qualify apparently.

Not sure if I can finish the list. I've only made it this far.

Cam hasn't done shite this season.
Posted on 10/19/16 at 8:17 pm to CBP3110
He's done fine. But he hasn't been AA level.
