Cordarrelle Patterson – Running back

This is an obvious pick for the Atlanta Falcons because Cordarrelle Patterson is one of the most unique people in the league, not only with his skill set but with his outstanding personality.

Patterson had a breakout campaign in what was his ninth year in the league, how often has that happened? We know how great he has been on the field. He has established himself as an incredible offensive player while also being the greatest kickoff returner in the history of the league.

But what we don’t talk about is his attitude toward his team. No one is happier to be an Atlanta Falcon than Cordarrelle Patterson. He has shared many times how much he loves the team and even returned this year for less money than he could have gotten elsewhere.

How can you not like this guy? He checks every single box when it comes to being an amazing player on and off the field. There just aren’t enough things you can say about him.
