5.) Myles Garrett
When the Browns selected Garrett with the first overall pick, expectations were high for him to be the next JJ Watt or Julius Peppers on defense. His season got off to a rocky start with a high ankle sprain suffered in practice after accidentally getting stepped on. A concussion also kept him out of the Browns game in London. While the sample size for Myles is small, his impact has been anything but that. Despite being less than 100% and playing much of his season without Ogbah and Collins as other threats on defense, he still led the team with seven sacks in eleven games played. That is three more than anyone else on the team and accounted for almost a fifth of the teams total. It was also the most sacks by a Browns player since Paul Kruger had 11 in 2014. Putting a healthy defense back out there in 2018 with an offense than can stay on the field and Garrett should be a double digit sack artist.
