Washington. Danny Shelton. 12. player. 53. At the very least Danny Shelton is the best interior run defender in the 2015 draft.  His mix of size (340 lbs), power and lateral quickness make it nearly impossible to run the ball effectively in his area.  What is lost about him is the presence of some sneaky upfield burst that allows him to jolt offensive linemen as a pass rusher if they aren’t prepared.  That increases his value even further.  The kid is committed, works hard, has talent and checks all the boxes of a becoming a staple in the middle of a defense for the next ten years – <a href=.
