Louis Nix III on IR

Remember when Kyle Fuller was the SHOE IN 'Defensive Rookie of the Year'?

I'd have to look now to see.

Aaron Donald.

As for offense, it's Odell Beckham or perhaps the less sexy choice of Zack Martin. Hill has had a nice season, but 5 fumbles is too damn many.

Agreed, Beckham will get it and he deserves it. Coming on strong at the end certainly helps.

I think Khalil Mack gets the DROY.

C.J. Mosley would be my second guess with Donald in third.

Nix started slow at ND too. RS'd his first season.

Tuitt has really come on.

Ferguson and Sutton have been solid too.

At this point WAY too early to bury any of these guys or elevate them.

Fuller, Ferguson, Sutton, and Vereen. Imagine what this defense will look like after another draft or two.

What has Fergusan, Sutton, or Vereen really shown you to think they are future cornerstones? And no I'm not writing them off...just asking.

C.J. Mosley would be my second guess with Donald in third.

Mack has been great and would be my #2 vote, but he hasn't generated the same pass rush impact as Donald. Mack has been one of the best in the NFL against the run at his position, but so has Donald (I believe PFF had him graded as the #1-2 DT against the run). Donald also has 8 sacks, which is exceptional for a rookie DT, and he didn't start until Week 6. At this point, Donald is already a Top 5 DT. Not sure Mack & Mosley can make that claim yet.
