(S2) - PT #5 - Most Improved

[Sweetwater]

The most improved player from the end of Season 1 to the end of Season 2 can definitely be argued about, and many will have their own criteria and preference as to which player had the biggest jump. My argument is for John Canton, corner back for the San Jose Sabercats. At the end of the first season, he was toward the bottom of the league, compares to other corner back, in tackles, passes Defensed, interceptions, and yards allowed. For someone highly touted as a draft steal, he was becoming a bust. Compare that to this season. Not only is he the current league leader in passes defensed, but he has also set the new single season record for the most passes defensed. He has one of the highest tackle amounts for corner backs, and is on of the few defensive player with an interception returned for a touchdown. He is a lock for the pro bowl, and could even look to ba and all pro this year. The only thing preventing Canton from being the default choice for most improved is his opponent's fear of throwing the ball his direction.

From middle round flop to pro bowl lock, John Canton is the most improved player in the Next.
