he Panthers' hard-hitting linebacker claimed the 2012 Defensive Rookie of the Year and 2013 Defensive Player of the Year awards on the strength of his tackling prowess and playmaking ability between the hashes. Kuechly is a vicious hitter capable of stoning power runners in the hole or snatching elusive runners attempting to turn the corner on outside runs. Most impressively, the fourth-year pro is a new-school middle linebacker with an old-school mentality and game; that is to say, he's athletic and rangy, but he's also an imposing force and physical hitter. With a ton of production (473 tackles, six sacks and seven picks in three seasons) to validate his contributions to the Panthers' stingy defense, it's easy to place Kuechly at No. 1, especially after watching how his physicality, toughness and intimidation wear down opponents over the course of a game.
