Justin Madubuike’s sack production has at least doubled each of his first three seasons. If the defensive tackle doubled again, it would be 11 sacks. That’s lofty, but Madubuike has the tools and I like his mentality. He said he keeps scratching out his 2023 goals and making them higher.
Patrick Queen is in a similar situation. Also entering a contract year, Queen is looking to earn a hefty payday, and we’ve seen him make the kind of plays that get paid. Queen wants to put the league on notice, and a full year next to Roquan Smith will help.
