Running back: Jeremy Hill, Cincinnati Bengals
While the running back position continues to be devalued around the league, the Bengals managed to get a nice return on investment from their 2014 second-round draft pick. Hill rushed for 1,124 yards on just 222 carries -- that's 5.1 yards per rush.

Wide receiver: Odell Beckham Jr., New York Giants
How do you describe Beckham's rookie season? Scintillating? Sensational? Stupefyingly sweet? No matter how you define it, the extremely productive campaign was something to behold. Beckham set a rookie record by averaging 108.8 yards per game. This is the most electrifying young wide receiver to enter pro football since Randy Moss in 1998.

Safety: Tyrann Mathieu, Arizona Cardinals
Unfortunately, we have yet to see a full, healthy season from the "Honey Badger." But we certainly have seen the immense talent, particularly when it comes to his innate ability to just make plays. He can tackle, rush the passer and cover the slot. And here's the thing: He's still just 22 years old. As the pro game continues to slow down for him from a mental perspective, he'll become even more of a beast.
