Owehs first-round draft capital and selection by a pass-rush-needy team like the Ravens has me very excited about his dynasty outlook, as well as his rookie year. Guerrero, Alonso, Olson, Freeman, and Goldschmidt all sit in the top 35 and are well deserving of those rankings. Joe Tryon*, TB -71.9. But the former Notre Dame standout was my No. 1 in the pre-draft process and remains in that spot after being the first linebacker off the board in the NFL Draft. 6) Levi Onwuzurike, DT, Detroit Lions7) Dayo Odeyingbo, DE, Indianapolis Colts8) Payton Turner, DE, New Orleans Saints9) Joe Tryon, DE, Tampa Bay Buccaneers10) Carlos Basham Jr., DE, Buffalo Bills.

Deablos upside in IDP is intriguing when you consider his size and physicality. Atlanta shed its top 3 safeties this offseason, allowing Keanu Neal, Ricardo Allen and Damontae Kazee to walk. He lands in a good spot for early opportunity, but the Colts also look well set up to work Paye in an end rotation for as long as they deem necessary. Gregory Rousseau, DE, Bills4. 1. Instead he went 3rd at the position, at Pick 11 of Round 2. But if we can trust the reported 4.7-second 40 time, that would give the 276-pounder at 113.1 speed score.

In most cases, Im assuming a balanced scoring system (three points for big plays like sacks and interceptions, one point per tackle). 12 votes, 14 comments. Chris Harris Jr. remains but is at his best in the slot. And his 9.98 Relative Athletic Score not only led all LBs in this class, but nearly reached the scales limit (10.00).

New Orleans must have seem something it likes in Turner, but early snaps could be hard to come by behind Cam Jordan and Marcus Davenport. After seeing almost daily posts on the upcoming offensive rookie class, I'm curious how everyone rates the upcoming defensive Basham and Gregory Rousseau figure to be measured against each other for years. The Panthers were the best possible fit for Jaycee Horn. 8. What's Christian Harris' role? Epenesasaw less than 400 snaps as a rookie. Who are the top linebackers in our IDP rookie rankings for 2021? Detroit no longer has Jarrad Davis on the roster, and the only other linebackers they have are Jahlani Tavai, Jamie Collins, and Jalen Reeves-Maybin.

He also defensed 7 passes and forced 5 fumbles. Then he delivered the class 4th-best speed score in pre-draft testing and added 68th-percentile 3-cone time. As a result, he's raw as a prospect and will be a situational player behind Trey Hendrickson and Sam Hubbard for the foreseeable future. If he's ready, Cisco could push Jarrod Wilson for the FS job. 2. Chris Rumph II, DE, Chargers (chance he changes to LB)15. His biggest line came in 2019: 125 tackles, 18 TFLs, 3.5 sacks. 1. (And really tall.). At 63, 274 pounds, he delivered the edge class 2nd-best speed score (115.2), trailing only Odafe Owehs ridiculous testing. Von Miller injury highlights a season of woe among Buffalo Bills IDPs. But beating out Nick Vigil to start on the weak side in the Twin Cities is well within reason. 37. The Dolphins found a star in Jevon Holland. That will likely remain the starting duo for 2021, but Rice could compete for a top job as soon as 2022. Dynasty Offense.

However, if Fangio wants him to be more of an edge rusher, he'll see fewer opportunitiesplaying behind Bradley Chubb and Von Miller. Divine Deablo S, Las Vegas Raiders: At 6'3" and 226 pounds, Deablo is actually a bigger player than Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah, although he's slated to play strong safety in Las Vegas. The LB class, on the other hand, arrives with only the question of draft capital. Christian Barmore DT, New England Patriots: Barmore didn't do a whole lot over the first half of the 2020 season, but he was a monster for Alabama down the stretch. He hits the NFL as the safer bet for production than Gay, who limited himself to 5 games in his final college campaign with off-field issues. Well see whether that year away impacts his readiness for 2021. Oweh to the Ravens feels like the most perfect match for him to succeed right out the gate as an NFL rookie. Andre Cisco S, Jacksonville Jaguars: A wildly aggressive 6'1", 216-pounder out of Syracuse, Cisco made it just two games into the 2020 season before suffering a season-ending injury.

Tennessee obviously felt comfortable enough to take him in Round 1, and Im not worried about the risk for dynasty purposes. This is a weak class at DT, which adds value to Barmore. 3. 7. As far as pass rushers go for the Ravens, there isnt a single edge defender on that team I would rather have starting than Oweh, and I imagine he will be doing just that. Odafe Oweh, BLT 86.2 If I were Rousseau, Id be a little nervous. Too much changes from year to year defensively to look too far ahead. But some draftniks called the immensely athletic Penn State star the best off-ball linebacker prospect since Luke Kuechly. Elerson Smith, LB, Giants (likely to move to LB)18. 6) Nick Bolton, LB, Kansas City Chiefs7) Baron Browning, LB, Denver Broncos8) Derrick Barnes, LB, Detroit Lions9) Jabril Cox, LB, Dallas Cowboys10) Ernest Jones, LB, Los Angeles Rams.

Milton Williams DT, Philadelphia Eagles: Williams is as well-known for the draft-room kerfuffle that followed his third-round selection as anything he did while at Louisiana Tech.

Ojulari checks in a bit small -- 63, 249 -- but playing off the line can help balance any shortcoming there. Levi Onwuzurike didnt have eye-popping numbers at Washington, but hell have an opportunity to become the interior presence the Lions have lacked these past few seasons. ???? Baron Browning, LB, Broncos9. The most exciting time of the year for dynasty fantasy football managers is the rookie draft. In addition, the Panthers were looking to add physicality to the secondary, and Horn fills that void with his rare combination of speed and size.

Obviously, the team didn't know at the time of any of those signings that it would be drafting a corner inside the top 10. Collins stands 6-5, 260 and delivered a 105.3 speed score (70th percentile for the position). However, the competition he faced was not as strong in the Group of Five, and we only saw him for a little more than four games.

Jamin Davis, LB, Washington4. Best of all for his outlook, Ogundeji landed in a Falcons defense that desperately needs edge-rushing help.

Barmore delivered 8 sacks, 3 forced fumbles, 3 pass deflections and 9.5 total tackles for loss in his final Alabama season. JOK is the big-name newbie at LB for the Browns, but this 5th-round pick also landed in the crowd of lackluster/unproven talent that is the Cleveland LB corps.

I covered Owehs ability to play all three downs in my recent my guys article for rookie IDPs heading into this draft, and theres a very good chance that Oweh will be able to showcase that talent in Baltimore.

Roche found one of the better opportunities for a late-round edge defender. Assuming he's 100 percent by Week 1, the depth chart in front of Cisco isn't exactly loaded.
