3. Frank Clark, Seattle Seahawks

The Seahawks took a bit of a calculated risk on Frank Clark coming out of the 2015 NFL Draft, and so far, so good.

Clark has stayed out of trouble and provided the Seahawks with a very good pass rush presence off the edge, racking up 19 sacks over the past two seasons with four forced fumbles.

Pro Football Focus credits Clark with 39 hurries in 2017, and he’s become a player defenses have to focus in on every single week.

Checking in at 6-foot-3, 260 pounds, Clark is a terror off the edge with his relentless motor and ability to bull rush offensive linemen backward with ease.

Clark has very good quickness off the snap and has become one of the most underrated edge players in the NFL. He’s a stud.
