I know I've been covering lots of offensive rookies. This is mainly due to the fact that they garner more attention. The exception to this is the Detroit Lions rookie defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh.
Suh is a 6'4/307 lb monster on the field. He played his college ball at Nebraska where in his senior year he won numerous awards including AP College Football Player of the Year, Bronko Nagurski Trophy, Chuck Bednarik Award, Lombardi Award and Outland Trophy. He was also a finalist for the Heisman Trophy. Based on his phenomenal college career he was drafted as the 2nd pick overall in the 2010 draft.
So far this season Suh has 33 tackles (26 solo, 7 assist), 7 sacks and 1 INT. He also assisted in 1 defensive TD and just barely missed an extra point kick. Lions may be a struggling team but Suh has a bright future in the league.
