Watkins, Carr, Mack top 'Midseason All-Rookie Team'

Welcome to Around The NFL's "Rookie Watch" series, a week-by-week journey ranking this year's promising collection of first-year players.
Rookies bring hope to all 32 teams. In recent years, we've seen Russell Wilson and Andrew Luck immediately shake up the landscape on offense, while draft picks spent on J.J. Watt and Robert Quinn turned vanilla defenses into trouble for opponents.
Between now and the end of the regular season, we'll chart this year's rookie class in an effort to predict which first-year players have the best chance at long careers in our nation's finest sport.
We've taken a broad look at the entire class after Week 1 and Week 2, ranked the running backs and first-year quarterbacks, unveiled our early picks for Offensive and Defensive Rookie of the Year, examined this year's top undrafted rookies and took a peek at some of this year's rookie disappointments.
Coming out of Week 8, it's time to roll out our Midseason All-Rookie Team.
Midseason All-Rookie Team
Pos. Player Team
QB Derek Carr Oakland Raiders
RB Branden Oliver San Diego Chargers
RB Jerick McKinnon Minnesota Vikings
WR Sammy Watkins Buffalo Bills
WR Kelvin Benjamin Carolina Panthers
WR Brandin Cooks New Orleans Saints
WR John Brown Arizona Cardinals
TE See below
OT Taylor Lewan Tennessee Titans
OG Joel Bitonio Cleveland Browns
C Corey Linsley Green Bay Packers
OG Zack Martin Dallas Cowboys
OT Ja'Wuan James Miami Dolphins
DE See below
DT Aaron Donald St. Louis Rams
OLB Khalil Mack Oakland Raiders
OLB Anthony Barr Minnesota Vikings
ILB C.J. Mosley Baltimore Ravens
CB Kyle Fuller Chicago Bears
S Ha Ha Clinton-Dix Green Bay Packers
P Pat O'Donnell Chicago Bears
K Chandler Catanzaro Arizona Cardinals
KR Jarvis Landry Miami Dolphins
Blockers: People kill Cleveland for passing on a wideout in the second round of May's draft, but Bitonio is Pro Bowl material. He's played every snap at guard and been a rock since Day 1. ... Martin hasn't missed a snap, either, helping to anchor a Cowboys line that might be the NFL's finest. ... The Titans can feel good about Lewan's development over the past month.
