95 is a no-brainer. Not only because the pickings are slim, but because if I DON’T pick the obvious winner, he’s likely to kick my Twitter butt.

The Winner

Shaun Phillips, LB

Seven years into his career, Phillips keeps rolling on – and we hope he continues for a few more. This past season, he made his first Pro Bowl, amassed double-digit sacks for only the second time, and scored his second touchdown.

Don’t look for Phillips to put up big tackle numbers (he’s never had more than 68), but do expect him to continue to be a disruptive force on the Chargers defense – and to continue Tweeting his horoscope.

Definitely a no brainer.

This guy can drop back into coverage, he’s excellent at rushing the passer, and will force a bunch of fumbles. I’ll take that over high tackle numbers any day. Besides, Eric Weddle and Kevin Burnett pretty much got us covered in that department!
