Russell Wilson is Seattle's magic man, as his teams are never out of the game. I'm curious to see if his magic will take the Seahawks back to the top of the NFC in 2016. The only reason the Eagles stayed competitive in many games last season was because of the pressure Fletcher Cox puts on the quarterback. The guy is an animal on the D-line. Justin Houston is the heart and soul of the Chiefs' D, but I want to see him stay injury-free. He's too good to be sitting on the sidelines. Joe Thomas is the best left tackle in the game. He's overlooked because he plays in Cleveland, but he doesn't give up sacks or get holding calls. Muhammad Wilkerson is a dominant force for the Jets' defense, as he does a great job against the run and sacked the quarterback 12 times in 2015. Since Luke Kuechly's arrival, Carolina's defense has continued to get better. He's the leader and does things that we haven't seen a middle linebacker do. Rounding out this group is a guy who I think is the most impactful defensive tackle in the game: Aaron Donald. The third-year Ram creates pressure from inside and makes plays in both the run and pass games.
