Bradley Chubb

It’s hard not to imagine this year’s first rounder ending up in the Ring of Fame someday. I’m still in disbelief the Denver Broncos were able to land him at number five overall. He is that good.

Future Ring of Fame honoree Chris Harris Jr. went as far to say he looks like a young Khalil Mack.

In his three seasons starting at North Carolina State, Chubb put up monstrous numbers. He finished his Wolfpack career with 25 sacks, 198 tackles, and 54.5 tackles for loss.

Chubb combines elite size with elite athleticism, a high motor, and a fantastic work ethic. Even better, defenses won’t be able to key on him because he has the gift of playing next to the league’s best edge defender, Von Miller.

Although he is likely to not officially start this year, he will see plenty of time in passing situations. It’s reasonable to expect 8-10 sacks this year from the rookie.
