PFT’s postseason awards | ProFootballTalk
Executive of the Year.
Winner: Bengals president Mike Brown.
Runner-up: 49ers G.M. Trent Baalke.
Honorable mention: Lions G.M. Martin Mayhew, Texans G.M. Rick Smith.
By picking receiver A.J. Green in round one and quarterback Andy Dalton in round two, Brown landed a cornerstone combination that should fuel the passing game for years to come. And by fleecing the Raiders for a first-round pick and a second-round pick in exchange for the rights to a quarterback who never would play again for the Bengals, Brown put himself in position to further lay the foundation for a bright future.
