Defensive Rookie of the year candidates


Yesterday I had my offensive candidates today I turn it over to the defensive side of the ball.


Patrick Willis LB 49ers: Willis could start right away and improve a 49ers defense that finished 26th in total defense. He is a big playmaker and could become an all pro calibar player.


Lawrence Timmons LB Steelers: Timmons could become an impact player in a Joey Porter like role for the Steelers. He should start right away and with his speed will go great with Dick LeBeau's exotic blitz schemes.


Anthony Spencer DE Cowboys: Not many people had heard of Spencer in college but he was one of the most dominant pass rushers in the big ten. His head coach now is Wade Phillips who as defensive coordinator for the Chargers turned Shawne Merriman into one of the leagues most elite pass rushers.

Timmons, should have the most impact, however you never know on the defensive side of the ball. It has alot to do with the system and the scheme and I believe Timmons is in the best situation.
