NFL EDGE RUSHER RANKINGS 2022 In football, nothing jumps off the screen like a dominant pass rusher, so here are my edge rusher rankings for the 2022 season. When you’re differentiating between players at the pinnacle of their craft, the intricate details are everything. Pass rushing techniques are taught in a bevy of different philosophies.

BEST NFL OL 25 & UNDER. 1. Rashawn Slater LT (Los Angeles Chargers): Rashawn Slater is the prototypical NFL Offensive Lineman. Slater measures in at 6’4 315 pounds. The rest of the 25 and under group at offensive line proved ridiculously loaded with talent. With that said, Rashawn Slater has separated himself from the pack.

Considering he was only a rookie in 2021, what he accomplished was nothing short of amazing. Pro Bowl and 2nd team All-Pro in year 1. Beyond…

However, to truly be successful and win meaningful playoff games, at some point or another, your QB is simply going to have to “make the throws” as real football people call it. Good QB play is the difference between a perennial high draft pick team and a playoff team. It’s…

Is it possible that a player of notoriety and acclaim as high as DE Will Anderson could still be underrated?  A National Champion, Unanimous All-American, winner of every major defensive award & honor imaginable, standout for the best program in the nation, & projected top 2023 draft pick, Anderson has accomplished virtually all there is at the colligate level.
