*TIL playing Defensive Tackle makes you ineligible for Defensive Tackle awards

[retrospace111]

So there is zero point in this league in playing DT unless you play nose tackle.

Please change the name of the award.

That's literally how the NFL works too. Yes, there is 0 point of playing in the league at a position unless you play at that position. 
If you want more playing time go play for a 4-3 defensive scheme or suck it up and play at DE. I do agree with you that the awards system is broken for defensive linemen, but did you expect an easy path to playing full time as a DT in a 3-4 defense?
The Packers run this exact same scheme with just one nose tackle. A lot of teams run this exact same scheme. You're still eligible for DEOTY so stop whining with your passive aggressive articles flaming the awards committee who already are getting enough shit as it is.
