Cameron Jordan
Teams still have to account for Cameron Jordan on the field after 12 seasons in the league. Jordan has been a one-man wrecking crew for a Saints defense that has quietly been among the best in the league over the last few seasons. Jordan has 114.5 sacks since 2012, the most in the league during that time. Jordan, as a conventional 4-3 end, can disrupt both the pass and run game. His versatility makes game preparation for the near 290-pound edge rusher difficult. Jordan has appeared in seven Pro Bowls and was named to the All-Pro First Team in 2017.

Alan Page
Alan Page, a Vikings hero, made history in 1971 by becoming the first mainly defensive player to earn the NFL Most Valuable Player award. QBs and running backs were the only players to earn MVP at the time. Page established his case by dominating the line of scrimmage all season. Page spent 15 seasons with the Vikings, where he helped the team win four conference championships and a league championship. He was a member of the well-known “Purple People Eaters” defensive line, which was noted for harassing opposing quarterbacks. Page’s career ended with 148.5 sacks and induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
