Biggest strength: Interior defender Aaron Donald was the best player in the NFL in 2016 and still somehow managed to get better the following season, leading to his placement at No. 1 in our top-50 list for the second consecutive year. Donald led all players at his position in total pressures (71) despite playing in just 14 games in 2017.
Biggest weakness: Brought in as a third-round pick out of Louisville in 2015, Rams guard Jamon Brown underwhelmed in his first two years as a depth player and carried his poor play as the starter in 2017. He earned a 51.2 overall grade across 1,097 snaps last season, allowing 38 total pressures (30 hurries, 7 hits, 1 sack) in the process.
By the numbers: Overshadowed by Donald, Rams star running back Todd Gurley earned a career-high 92.0 grade as the focal point of Sean McVay’s offensive attack. He ranked inside the top 15 in yards after contact per attempt (2.81) and forced missed tackles on the ground (38) in addition to his fifth-ranked yards per route run (2.14).
