How many sacks will Leonard Floyd get in 2021?

Since 2009, there have been 19 defensive ends or outside linebackers picked within the top-12 of the NFL draft. Of those 19, five of those players were 23 or 24 years old during their rookie campaigns. Those five players are:

  • Tyson Jackson, 3rd overall, 2009
  • Dion Jordan, 3rd overall, 2013
  • Ezekiel Ansah, 5th overall, 2013
  • Vic Beasley, 8th overall, 2015
  • Leonard Floyd, 9th overall, 2016

That’s the list. I’m not necessarily making a point about age, but that’s the list. I didn’t intend to cherrypick based on starting with the year 2009 or stopping at the top-12, but that’s the list.
