The award crowns the player who most outperformed his contract and players such as Vincent definitely fit the bill, as he tore up the league this year for 1,167 yards and nine touchdowns while making a paltry $625,000.

You can check out the contest at <a href="http://%20www.topvalueperformer.com/" target="_blank">www.topvalueperformer.com</a>. The other nominees are Baltimore Ravens Running Back Ray Rice, Denver Broncos Linebacker Elvis Dumervil, Jacksonville Jaguars Wide Receiver Mike Sims-Walker and New York Giants Wide Receiver Steve Smith. Past winners have included David Garrard (2007) and Matt Cassel (2008), who both were coincidently rewarded with new multi-million dollar contracts after winning this award.

The winner is selected based solely on fan voting.
