Von Miller: Defensive Player of the Year
Von Miller, the Super Bowl MVP is looking the best he has ever been and in that alone could be a nightmare for opposing offensive lines. Miller made his presence felt in his first ever postseason averaging close to 2.5 sacks a game agains the Pittsburgh Steelers, New England Patriots and Carolina Panthers. Since Miller is in the best shape of his life, he will surpass the 11 sacks he accumulated a year ago.
The offseason for the Broncos star defensive player may have him fresh and ready for a full NFL season. Miller participlated in Dancing With the Stars and because of the workload and exercise routine it demands, his first step looked quicker and faster than any season. He has tremendous depth behind him on the depth, but his impact on the football field will take it to another level after reaching an elite level mentality in 2015.
Miller has DeMarcus Ware to thank for getting his life back on track and also a player Miller can feed off of for knowledge and situations. Ware’s accountability with Miller has the Super Bowl MVP taking center stage yet again. The Broncos rewarded Miller as their franchise player with the richest contract for a non-quarterback. He will finally receive his Defensive Player of the Year award he has lacked in previous years.
