With the NFL season nearly over, who are the ACC players who have had the biggest impact at each position this year?

Welcome to the second annual edition of the All-ACC NFL All-Star team.

The ACC did not have the same impact in the NFL this season as it did last season for any other reason than Matt Ryan did not have another MVP type season.

However, there were still former conference stars playing big roles this season.

This year’s team saw three different teams get four players, as former Florida State, Pittsburgh, and North Carolina players all had big seasons. Also, unlike last season’s squad, all 14 ACC schools got one former player on the team.

This year’s squad also saw 18 new players join as younger guys stepped up and some veterans had big years as 21 different NFL squads produced worthy players.

Also, this season saw the addition of three new spots as opposed to last season. The NFL does not play one set way, especially on defense, and so this team has adapted accordingly.

You can check out last year’s team here.

So with the Super Bowl upon us, let’s get started at quarterback where we find our first change this season.
