Meant to put "Rookie Special" in the title. Sorry

AFC NORTH

Baltimore — If you take away Ed Dickson, the Ravens’ rookies have combined for 76 snaps on offense or defense.
Cincinnati — As you’ll see from this article, Geno Atkins is the seventh-most productive interior defensive lineman in the league when it comes to rushing the passer.
Cleveland — With 47 tackles (remember, we count tackles retrospectively) T.J. Ward leads all rookies at all spots.
Pittsburgh — The 13 quarterback disruptions given up by Maurkice Pouncey are fourth most of all centers.

AFC EAST

Buffalo — Tackle Cord Howard gives up a quarterback pressure once every 6.81 pass blocks.
Miami — Guard John Jerry gives up a quarterback pressure once every 15.15 pass blocks.
New England — The eight pass breakups of Devin McCourty are third in the league and lead all rookies.
New York Jets — Four is the magic number for Kyle Wilson. Four defensive stops, four quarterback pressures and four pass breakups.

AFC SOUTH

Houston — The five touchdowns given up by Kareem Jackson are more than any other cornerback.
Indianapolis — On his 35 pass rushes, Jerry Hughes has produced just two quarterback pressures.
Jacksonville — After picking up nine quarterback disruptions in the first four weeks of the season, Tyson Alualu has managed just four since (and with an extra game).
Tennessee — It’s a shame Derrick Morgan went down. He was averaging a QB disruption for every 7.11 attempts rushing the passer.

AFC WEST

Denver — Our second-lowest-graded center in the league, J.D. Walton, has given up more pressure (19) than any other center not named David Baas.
Kansas City — No safety has allowed more touchdowns than Eric Berry (six).
Oakland — With 11 defensive stops, Lamarr Houston has made more than any other rookie defensive end.
San Diego — Ryan Mathews has earned 52.27 percent of his yards after contact. In a rather unfair comparison, 71.74 percent of Adrian Peterson’s yards come after contact.

NFC NORTH

Chicago — No rookie tackle has given up more quarterback disruptions than J’Marcus Webb (33).
Detroit — No defensive tackle has been on the field more than Ndamukong Suh.
Green Bay — The 70.6 percent of throws allowed in his direction by Sam Shields is the most of all rookies.
Minnesota — In his 202 snaps, Chris Cook has just the one pass breakup but has yet to allow a touchdown.

NFC EAST

Dallas — Dez Bryant has caught 69.5 percent of passes thrown his way.
New York Giants — Jason Pierre-Paul is the third-least productive (on a per-snap basis) defensive end in the league right now (click here to see why).
Philadelphia — With 26 quarterback disruptions, Brandon Graham leads all rookie defensive ends.
Washington — Of the plays Keiland Williams has been in on, just 17.33 percent have been running plays.

NFC SOUTH

Atlanta — Corey Peters has played 55.05 percent of all Falcons defensive plays (compare that to last year’s first-round pick Peria Jerry, who has played 22.2 percent).
Carolina — Jimmy Clausen has really struggled on balls thrown between zero and 9 yards. He’s completed just 56.06 percent of these throws (even Matt Moore is at 80.36 percent).
New Orleans — Patrick Robinson is yet to miss a tackle in his 207 snaps on the field.
Tampa Bay — The 6.8 yards after the catch Mike Williams is averaging leads all rookies and is 11th in the league.

NFC WEST

Arizona — Though he has yet to register a single quarterback pressure (on 82 rushes), Dan Williams does have nine defensive stops.
St. Louis — In being on the field for 671 snaps (including penalties) Sam Bradford has played more snaps than all but nine offensive players.
San Francisco — Navorro Bowman has made more special teams tackles than any other rookie (nine). He’s also missed more (three).
Seattle — In allowing just 11 of 24 balls thrown his way to be completed, Walter Thurmond’s 45.8 percent completion allowance rate is the lowest of all rookies.
