We've almost reached the 2017 NFL regular season, which, of course, means the return of my All-22 team.
As a former player and former scout, I can tell you that closely studying game film reveals things you won't notice on the first or even second viewing of an NFL play. Sometimes the best individual plays never show up on a broadcast.
This is why the players I choose to focus on aren't picked for highlight plays or impressive statistics. I dig through the game film instead. I'm looking at guys who are wreaking havoc on the defensive line or breaking up passes but who might not be recording sacks or interceptions.
