2020 Award Results

Jon Kinsman, YFFL Commissioner


December 21, 2020


2020 was a year to forget for many, but not for these players and owners:

Most Valuable Player

QB Josh Allen - Refugees

After watching Patrick Mahomes and then Lamar Jackson make "the leap" in their second season over the past 2 years, many were wondering which quarterback would join them in 2020. While it took Josh Allen an extra year to figure things out, he certainly exploded onto the YFFL map this year. Allen topped the 20 point mark six times enroute to 230 points and a Wild Card berth for the Refugees despite just 28 points from the RB position all season.

Rookie of the Year

RB James Robinson - Brothers

With plenty of buzz heading into the 2020 draft, who would have guessed that an undrafted rookie would take home top honors in this year's freshman class? James Robinson took the reins of the RB position in Jacksonville and never looked back, tallying 94 points (good for 4th at his position) and filling in admirably for an injury-plagued Christian McCaffrey as the Brothers' workhorse.

Player 1st 2nd 3rd Total*
James Robinson 6 3 1 25
Justin Jefferson 4 4 0 20
Joe Burrow 0 2 4 8
Antonio Gibson 0 1 3 5
Rodrigo Blankenship 0 0 2 2

Macor Misa

RB James Robinson - Brothers

Stop me if you heard this one before - the Brothers had another promising season cut down by a slew of injuries. For a team that saw 2-time Pro Bowler Christian McCaffrey play only 3 games and Odell Beckham miss half the season, it wouldn't have surpirsed anyone if the Brothers were playing in this weekend's Stupor Bowl. However, undrafted rookie James Robinson came out of nowhere to score 94 points and keep the Brothers in playoff contention until the final weeks of the season.

Player 1st 2nd 3rd Total*
James Robinson 7 2 1 26
DeeJay Dallas 2 2 2 12
Robert Tonyan 1 2 1 8
Cole Beasley 0 2 2 6
Rodrigo Blankenship 0 2 2 6
Jonnu Smith 0 0 1 1
Mike Davis 0 0 1 1

Owner of the Year

Mike Kinsman - Buddies & Chickens

It's Mike's world and we're all just living in it. Kinsman brought home his third straight Owner of the Year award thanks to an incredible season from the defending champion Buddies that saw them become just the second team to top 800 points in a season and the Chickens, who brought home their third straight division title behind some shrewd wheeling and dealing from GM Nick Wood. Mike will attempt to put the cherry on top with another championship in Super Bowl XXVIII.
