Cam Newton, Von Miller and Odell Beckham Jr are all easy picks but who else shone brightly this season in the NFL and went under the radar?Its that time of the year when we look back on the season that was, Denver and their defence won Super Bowl 50, while as expected Cam Newton took the MVP award at the NFL Honours show in San Francisco on the eve of the big game.But there was plenty to remember from the rest of the season, so we asked Super Bowl XXXIV winner Torry Holt for his take the players who performed when their team needed it most. The former St Louis Rams wide receiver came up with six that caught his eye and weve added some of their season highlights. Ode to Beast Mode Looking back at the career of Marshawn Lynch JULIO JONES (WR) Atlanta FalconsYou can pull up any Julio Jones clip - they are fascinating.He is fast, big, can catch, can run, can block. He does it all at the wide receiver position. He is someone that sticks out to me. RUSSELL WILSON (QB) Seattle SeahawksRussell had a phenomenal year. With Marshawn Lynch being in and out of the line-up, they had to rely on Russell Wilsons legs and his arm.He threw for more than 4000 yards, 34 touchdowns - he had a great year, particularly the second half of the season when he and Doug Baldwin got on a real hot streak. Here are some of Julio Jones season highlights.

Aaron Donald stood out for St Louis Rams. Video courtesy of the NFL LARRY FITZGERALD (WR) Arizona CardinalsI credit Larry because he went from being the outside receiver to now playing in the slot and handling a lot of the blocking duties.He had a really good year and a really good post season and he continued his post-season streak of consecutive catches and receiving yards (Fitzgerald remains the only player to average a touchdown catch and 100+ receiving yards per post-season game). Josh Norman made his mark this season with several stunning displays.

So after that, I said, `Thats enough, lets send Erik.Mark Stone and Kyle Turris scored in regulation for the Senators, who have won three of their last four while totaling seven regulation goals in that span. Craig Anderson had 33 saves through overtime and stopped all five Flyers attempts in the tiebreaker.Ottawa is now 10-5-1 even though it has scored two or fewer goals in regulation in 10 straight games.You know, a good coaching staff, the right scouting and making sure we know what we are all doing so there is no confusion, Anderson said.

We seem to be on the same page.Nick Cousins and Michael Raffl had Philadelphias goals, and Steve Mason finished with 24 saves. The Flyers went 0 for 4 on the power play and have lost four of five.Its very disappointing but I think we battled hard, Raffl said.

Its yours, its mine, its yours, its mine. Weve had a lot of that.The Flyers grabbed the early lead on Cousins second goal of the season 5:14 in. An ill-advised neutral-zone pass by Ottawas Derick Brassard landed onto the stick of Cousins, who used a burst of speed to break free on Anderson. Cousins beat the goaltender past his stick side for his first goal since Oct 27 and 1-0 lead.The Senators tied it 7:09 into the second when they capitalized on a Flyers defensive zone turnover. Philadelphias Jakub Voracek saw his pass intercepted and a poke check by Flyers defenseman Mark Streit ended up on the stick of Ottawa defenseman Mark Methot, who slid a centering pass to Stone for his third of the season and second in three games.The Flyers regained their lead a little more than six minutes later on Raffls second goal of the season.
