Future Five

Nick Bosa (Ohio State Buckeyes): Bosa has a strong chance of being a top five draft pick in the 2019 NFL Draft. He is a great prospect who has excelled in his first two seasons at Ohio State. The Bosa brothers have a chance to be the Manning brothers of pass rushers.

Leonard Floyd (Chicago Bears): The Bears have a solid starter with Floyd on the outside. The Bears defense looks improved headed into the 2018 season, and if Floyd continues to live up to expectations, it should be.

Harold Landry (Tennessee Titans): Landry fell a bit too far in this year’s draft, and the Tennessee Titans were smart to grab him when they did. I don’t expect him to make a huge impact this season, but a few years from now he will be a great player for them.

Bradley Chubb (Denver Broncos): The Broncos’ selection of Chubb was one of the best picks of the first round. The combination of Von Miller and Chubb will dominate the NFL for years to come. Chubb may be the favorite to win defensive rookie of the year in 2018.

Derek Barnett (Philadelphia Eagles): Barnett nearly made the regular part of these rankings this year. Next year, I fully expect him to. Don’t forget about his great performance in Super Bowl LII.
