3. Shaquil Barrett, EDGE
Grade: 6.7
We all saw it in pre-season, but the highest graded player in the exhibition games has also translated his dominance to regular season play. In limited snaps, Barrett has been wildly effective, grading out as the 7th best 3-4 OLB in the NFL thus far.
Barrett had his first NFL sack against Matthew Stafford on Sunday night, but he did one better — he also forced a fumble and gave the Broncos great field position. As effective as he is at rushing the quarterback, Barrett also blows plays up as a run defender.
He’s a keeper.
