20 Keith Rivers, Cincinnati Bengals

15 Daryl Smith, Jackonsville Jaguars

13 Shaun Phillips, San Diego Chargers
12 Anthony Spencer, Dallas Cowboys
11 Chad Greenway, Minnesota Vikings
Outside linebacker is a dangerous position. They can get after the quarterback, contain a running back and make those game changing plays. Most of the guys outside the top 10 are simply not as consistent at making those key plays.

| Elvis Dumervil |
10 Brian Orakpo, Washington Redskins
9 Elvis Dumervil, Denver Broncos
8 Lance Briggs, Chicago Bears
7 Cameron Wake, Miami Dolphins
6 Terrell Suggs, Baltimore Ravens
5 Tamba Hali, Kansas City Chiefs
4 LaMarr Woodley, Pittsburgh Steelers
All of these guys are thrilling to watch play. They rack up the sack totals, make key interceptions and force the offense to account for them at all times. One guy to watch is Elvis Dumbervil, who after missing all of last season due to injury is back and looking to return to his pro bowl form. I'm also not looking forward to the Patriots having to deal with Cameron Wake two times this season.
Top 3
3 James Harrison, Pittsburhg Steelers
2 Clay Matthews, Green Bay Packers
1 Demarcus Ware, Dallas Cowboys
James Harrison, Clay Matthews and Demarcus Ware are three of the best players in the NFL. I wouldn't be surprised if any one of these guys is the defensive player of the year this year, that is how good they are. The reason why I have Ware at one is because he is a little bit more consistent that Matthews and is less prone to screw up his teams chemistry that Harrison.
