Re-Drafting the Defensive Linemen From the 2011 NFL Draft using Advanced Analytics
J.J. Watt would have to be the first end to go, but who would follow based on their career production thus far?

6. Ryan Kerrigan

CarAV: 43

For what Ryan Kerrigan lacks in the form of a huge season, he makes up for with his consistency. Since being drafted as a defensive end out of Purdue, the Washington Redskins have utilized his skills from the outside linebacker spot as a pure pass rusher.

Taking on that role, the former 16th overall pick has returned 240 tackles, 58.5 sacks and 19 forced fumbles in 96 games. In each season, Kerrigan has played every game while his AV has arrived at a value of 7 or better.

With an AV of 10, Kerrigan's most recent season played out as his best. He tallied 26 tackles, 11 sacks and 2 forced fumbles in securing Pro Bowl status for the second time in his career.
