Top Ten Best NFL Defensive Lineman of 2017

Sometimes the trench must do its part, these players reek massive havoc on any offenses worst nightmare.
The Top Ten
1 J.J. Watt Justin James "J. J." Watt is an American football defensive end for the Arizona Cardinals of the National Football League. He was drafted by the Texans with the 11th pick in the first round of the 2011 NFL Draft, and played college football at Wisconsin. ...read more.

Its hard not to put him their because when he is on the field he gets down to business.

2 Aaron Donald Aaron Charles Donald is an American football defensive tackle for the Los Angeles Rams of the National Football League.

He alone can disrupt an offensive line by himself, which again Lions passed on this guy I feel would of been a great backup for a potentially left suh that year ehhh! that draft gave me a bad taste in my mouth.

3 Michael Bennett Michael Bennett, Jr. is an American football defensive end for the Philadelphia Eagles of the National Football League.

Yeah he only had 5 sacks, but he did do more than that his usually the up, and front leader of that defensive front.

4 Gerald McCoy Gerald Keith McCoy Jr. is an American football defensive tackle for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers of the National Football League.

For awhile he has been consistent at being one of the best Defensive tackles.

5 Cliff Avril Clifford Samuel "Cliff" Avril is an American football defensive end for the Seattle Seahawks of the National Football League.

I wish the had never gave up Cliff Avril, I knew he would be a stud his got a ring what do you know meanwhile the Lions may wait another 100 years at this rate.

6 Cameron Wake Derek Cameron Wake is an American football defensive end for the Miami Dolphins of the National Football League.

Ndamukong Suh has not exactly been what the Dolphins have hoped for, yet here's Cameron Wake to try and take advantage on the scene, and that is dangerous duo right here.

7 Fletcher Cox Fletcher Cox is an American football defensive end for the Philadelphia Eagles of the National Football League.

He can be great when given the opportunity, he may bounce back strong with a newly upgraded line.

8 Olivier Vernon

The one signing along with this years Brandon Marshall the Giants will not regret those signing. Vernon to me is the best of the defensive lineman they have over considering Jason Pierre-Paul can't do it all with one hand.

9 Khalil Mack Khalil Mack is an American football outside linebacker for the Los Angeles Chargers of the National Football League.

Don't get me wrong I like Khalil Mack, but the switch from Linebacker to defensive end was weird, you know what though he ended getting to play well in that position just not as great the others ahead of him.

10 Derek Barnett

Out of the newer players the one that stands out for me is Barnett the man who broke the Regie White sack record that should indicate he makes an immediate impact for that team to not only stop the run, but also apply pressure when the opposing team attempts to pass.
