All-Salman 1st Team

Fall 2006

Offense:

Offensive Line

We start the Offensive Team with the Offensive Line...because these guys are the ones that win championships for their teams and are the unsung hero's:

Vinson Vadakara
(Bonzai Bandits)

The Bandits came out and proved that you can have a running game in the IPF. Vinson was a big reason why the Bandits had success on the ground and their QB had all day to find his receivers.

Irfan Jamil
(4U2NV)

Irfan is a QB at heart but put his ego aside for this tourney and moved to o-line and dominated. His ability to block and plays when he gets the ball in his hands make him an easy pick for the 1st team.

Danny Varghese
(Glory)

Danny was a huge reason why Glory made it to the finals and why Jinu is an All Salman selection at QB. Danny and the entire Glory O-line played physical smash mouth football that has not been seen in IPF before.

Quarterback

Nick "Vick" Patel
(K7)

The Fall 2006 IPF Tournament MVP. Nick is a double threat. He has a cannon for an arm and can make plays with his legs as well. Add in the fact that he doesn't make mistakes and you'll know why he is the most dangerous QB in IPF.

Denny Varghese
(Glory)

Denny made big play after big play all tournament long. His ability to come up with the big catch when it matters most makes him an easy All Salman 1st teamer.

Usman Jamil
(4U2NV)

Usman is a point-guard turned receiver and he plays WR as well as anyone. He goes after balls like rebounds and there aren't many DB's that can go and get em like Usman!

Nomi Ansari
(Only 1)

Nomi continues to make an impact in IPF. He has the speed to beat guys deep but its his precise route running that makes him tough to cover.

Defense:

Defensive Line

Ronnie Kurian
(Glory)

He was a terror on D-Line. There were times when his team just sent him in by himself and he still was disruptive in the backfield. An absolute terror that makes life of the O-line absolute hell.

Arsh Manejwala
(Lights Out)

Aarsh is the energizer bunny of IPF. He goes head up with bigger dudes and never backs down. He makes life very uncomfortable for opposing QB's

Gautam Ullah
(Bonzai Bandits)

An absolute terror at the MLB spot. He didn't let anything get by him with 13 tackles, 4 sacks, and 1 Interception for the tournament it was a no brainer selecting Gautam for LB and it shows why Chicago knows about Linebackers.

Sameer Patel
(K7)

The Fall 2006 IPF Defensive MVP. Any ball that was thrown his way was being picked off. Sameer was all over the place and just when the QB thought he had an open WR, Sameer would step right in front of the pass and take it the other way. On Championship Sunday Sameer had 5 Interceptions!!!

Manoj Kannookadan
(Bonzai Bandits)

Athletic CB who shadowed his receiver whereever they went. Was constantly around the ball and making plays all over the field.

Denny Varghese
(Glory)

Denny is shut down CB. He played most of the tournament in one-on-one coverage and held his own and led his team in tackles!

Amit Gupta
(Bollywood Ballers)

Was talking trash while making plays. Ball hawking safety who made numerous plays for his club to give them a chance to survive. Completely took the deep ball away from opposing offenses.
