2023 Pre-Season Rank #15, 2022 Pre-Season Rank #24, 2021 Pre-Season Rank #68, 2020 Pre-Season Rank #102.
T.J. Watt has rocketed through this rank, winning the AP Defensive Player of the Year in 2021 while placing second in 2020 and 2023. Watt is a three-time Sack-leader, a two-time Tackles for Loss leader and is in the conversation for the best pass-rusher of the last five years.
Turning 30 this year, Watt is already a four-time First Team All-Pro and shows no signs of decline. Now, Watt is on pace to join his brother J.J. in Canton. Sadly, their busts won’t be beside each other in the Hall!
