3. Bradley Chubb, OLB

As a cornerstone for the Denver Broncos, Bradley Chubb plays one of the most important positions in football. A top-flight edge rusher is tough to find and even harder to keep.

Chubb continues to rebound from his knee injury into a great player for the Denver defense.

Chubb has 6.5 sacks so far this season and seems to be hitting his stride. The 24-year-old should continue to get better.

Chubb’s size and physicality should help him age well as he continues to refine his technique, ensuring he remains an impactful defender of the next several seasons.

His 1st round contract status also provides the team with leverage of his 5th-year player option and the franchise-tag for additional seasons.

All-in-all, Chubb should remain a cornerstone for this team for many years to come.
