player. 57. South Carolina has sunk into the background of the SEC. It’s been a steady progression over the past few years and may take awhile before they’re back in the title hunt. However, they do seem to hold true on their knack for producing good pass rushers. Darius English isn’t getting a ton of buzz but the 6’6″ edge man continues to be productive. His progression has been steady going from one sack in 2014, to 4.5 in 2015. Now he has 6.5 in eight games this year. His best days may be ahead.
<p>People were skeptical of what the Bears could do with Leonard Floyd who had just 4.5 sacks his final year at Georgia. Now he has three in his past two games. English has the same upside. Chicago may not have a huge need for pass rushers but that is no excuse to stop adding them. Deeper rotations keep players fresher during games and allow defenses to attack quarterbacks in waves. It’s how winning championships is done. Ask Denver.</p>. OLB. South Carolina. Darius English . 7
