Starter
1 .) Mack Butler

Mack comes in with 70 tackles total, 43 of them coming in the solo variety. Mack is also tied for the league lead with 3 forced fumbles. Can he keep this pace up an bring home at least one trophy for these Oakland Raider fans? Only time will tell

2.) Justin Pleasant

3.) Oscar Brown
The #4 overall in the 2016 draft comes in at #3 this week. Brown is #5 o the team in tackles with 52 total. Known for being one of the fastest linebackers in the game already at the ripe age of 21 Brown looks to continue to wreck havoc on opposing defenses with his All-World athletic ability. Can Oscar make a late run at DROY ?

4.) Dwayne Duncan
Dwayne Duncan has been proving doubters wrong his whole life. Drafted with the 15th pick in the 4th round (111 overall) nobody has this kid on there radar. But all he has done in his rookie year is rack up 78 tackles (good for third on the team) , 2 TFL's, 7 passes defended an one forced fumble. If these are signs on things to come Indy fans found themselves a gem in the mid round.

5.) K.J. Stark

Rounding out the top 5 in DROY voting in the AFC is K.J. Stark who was drafted in the 3rd round with the 12th pick (76th overall). Second on his team with 64 tackles 34 being solo's. K.J has racked up 3 sacks which account for all 3 of his TFL's. If Buffalo wants a chance to keep there playoff hopes alive it could very well weigh on the shoulders of there rookie MLB
