Brutal Emeka Egbuka Rookie of the Year snub somehow just got even worse

There is no question that Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie wide receiver Emeka Egbuka has what it takes to be a special wide receiver in the NFL.

The Bucs took him in the first round from the best school in the country at producing wide receiver talent, Ohio State, for a reason, and there were times in his inaugural pro football season in which he looked like a big star.

Egbuka blasted the Philadelphia Eagles and Seattle Seahawks, two of the best teams in the NFC, for 101 and 163 receiving yards in back to back games. It was at this time when Egbuka seemed to be already putting it together and looking like a high end WR2 in just his first season in the league.
