Khalil Mack had another monster season and is a highly coveted pick for Defensive Player of the Year. Bruce Irvin — self proclaimed “Robin” to Mack’s “Batman” — was pretty solid, too. But the Oakland Raiders defensive line had a lackluster season as a whole, mainly due to lack of pressure from the inside.
Mario Edwards Jr. played all but two games this season because of a serious neck injury. After having a good year in 2015, starting nine games alongside Dan Williams, Justin Ellis only started four games this season and lost significant playing time.
