1. JJ Watt, Houston Texans

Nobody should be this big and powerful, yet still quick and explosive. JJ Watt can beat any Offensive Lineman in the league and even throws his hands up and swats an uncountable amount of passes. There's no scheming around JJ Watt. He will dominate no matter what.

2. Von Miller, Denver Broncos

Speed is the name of the game for this pass rushing technician. Miller has a wide assortment of moves that can make any opposing Lineman look like fools. While he is incredibly quick and explosive, he won't get rag-dolled around. He sports enough strength to stay up and fight to reach the QB.

The question is, can he excel even more in year two?
