NC State TE Jaylen Samuels and OL Joe Thuney earn 1st-team All-ACC honors

NC State has two players on the All-ACC first team, and both are worthy selections: Jaylen Samuels, who was highly productive from the FB/TB/TE/Jaylen Samuels positions; and Joe Thuney, who was his usual solid, versatile self in 2015. Defensive end Mike Rose earned second-team honors.

The complete first team:

Samuels was fourth in the ACC in receptions with 64 and fourth in touchdown receptions with seven. Both numbers were tops among ACC tight ends.

In addition, Matt Dayes, Nyheim Hines, Bra'Lon Cherry, and Quinton Schooley received honorable mentions.
