Ranking the 5 best pass rushers in the AFC East entering 2022
. Von Miller. 2. player. 16. .
There is no question that Von Miller has had a remarkable career that includes eight Pro Bowl nominations, three first-team All-Pro nominations, four second-team All-Pro nominations and was named Defensive Rookie of the Year his first year in the league in 2011. He has 115.5 career sacks and has helped the Denver Broncos and recently the Los Angeles Rams win Super Bowls.
The resume certainly speaks for itself but these rankings are ranking the players entering the 2022 season and at 33 years old, there is a case to be made that Von Miller is not the same player that he was earlier in his career.
This is not to say that he is a bad player, or won’t be an effective pass rusher for the Buffalo Bills, but the idea that Buffalo is getting a player that will have double-digit sacks may not be as realistic.
Even at the latter stages of his career, Von Miller is still one of the best in the AFC East and could end up being the best in the division but for these rankings he is beaten out just slightly by this next player.
