Aaron Donald should be the 2017 Defensive Player of the Year
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 ธ.ค. 2017
- This week's show: Aaron Donald has been the best defensive tackle in the NFL ever since his first day on the field four years ago, but in 2017 he's taken his play to an entirely new level. The race for Defensive Player of the Year has been his to lose for about a month now, and as long as he keeps playing like this, the Rams have a shot to beat any team in the league.

-2017: "Best season so far"
-2018: "best season so far"
Dude every season gets better and better
Luis Rodríguez numbers are down this year
Matthew Crane gets double and triple teamed yet still puts up numbers
@@matthewcrane5294 accounting for not only doubles but triple teams is like having an extra player on the d-line... plus i'd take 12.5 sacks an unbelievable amount of pressures and tfl's as a down year.
I never said it was his fault. ALL I said was that numbers are down
@@matthewcrane5294 7.5 sacks through five weeks he’s BAAACCCKKK
This video aged really well.
SB WINNER
Brett's videos usually do.
It's simple: I see a Brett Kollmann video, I click like
And we got Eric Ebron......
wayne 631 yeah, he will never get a chance in Det because we could have had Donald.
wayne 631 came here to say this ... RIP
wayne 631 don’t be upset we took Greg Robinson with the #2 pick. Lucky we had two picks and was able to grab him
Cori B yeah and somehow we still managed to end up with Robinson starting for us at LT SMH
Honestly it wouldn’t matter. Detroit is destined for failure
Aaron Donald is really underrated. Him, Khalil Mack, and Bobby Wagner are the best defenders in the NFL.
Zanyy Luke Kueckly too.
Underrated? He’s ranked as one of the best in the league and is talked about nonstop
Zanyy Lattimore can be added to that list
Thanks for finally mentioning Bobby, he consistently racks up way over 100 tackles a year, he forces fumbles, he make great coverage reads and gets picks, and he is a captain and the anchor of the Seattle defense
No love for DeMarcus Lawrence? He’s become one of the best pass rushers this year and run defenders
This is high quality content.
I'm about to watch this video, but even if this was a case against Donald as the DPOY, I would still give it to him without a doubt. He basically disrupts every single snap and while you see him expose some of the best offensive linemen in the league as well, it's those games in which the opposition doesn't have great guard play, that number 99 just completely takes over. I don't think anybody in league can match his combination of quickness and power inside.
chanberries I coach football and I'm watching tape right now. On the side I watch NFL tape half the time and I write my thoughts down at halilsrealfootballtalk.wordpress.com
I have no idea why anything I said would make you think I don't.
But that's the thing if their not facing great guards you would expect Donald to dominate. Its the games against the great olines that show just how elite he truly is
That depends on the way you see it. AD wins his matchup every single week and what makes him special is the fact he can dominate the greats, but especially if you have a mismatch your team expects you take games over. I mean of you watch him against the Seahawks, he basically single-handedly won that game. The offense just need to put 10 points on the board and the coverage had to hold up for 2 seconds, because then Donald was already in Russell Wilson's face.
Florian Hallach no I understand exactly what you mean but I guess I see it as if a great/Elite player has a mismatch I expect him to dominate ala Khalil mack's 5 sack game 2 years ago. But dominating other great/elite players that are supposed to shut you down that's what makes them elite
No doubt, AD does his stuff to everybody in the league. That makes him a once-in-a-generation talent. But I don't think there's anybody, who can defeat average opponents with the frequency he does.
Dude gets tripled team and still managed to get through them and sack the qb
Keep in mind, this video was made before his incredible 2018 season.
You thought 2017 was an amazing year for him LOL.
Yet another great video man! I discovered your channel this morning and now im just binge watching these!
Great content Brett! Just my third season watching football and I'm starting to get more familiar with defenses now so this is gold for me :)
Probably the BEST breakdown I've been able to find on any player just Subbed. IMPRESSIVE!
Absolutely love when you break down defensive line or pass rush players. I'm a highschool athlete, and I learn something new every time you break them down! Keep up the good work
Glad to be of service!
Your technique breakdown is excellent. It's like watching the video through a different lens after the explanations.
Dude... Your videos f**king rock. The most insightful football videos on YT by far. #respect
Great video ‼️ one of your best‼️
Bro I love you, I’ve been waiting for this for so freaking long. Aaron Donald is a beast.
His ability to be flexible turning his shoulders limits the amount of target space for the offensive linemen to lock on to. All while keeping his hips square to the position of the quarterback's location. That is not an easy thing to do for any defensive tackle. But for him it is like second nature. His height "disadvantage" is what helps him do this because of his low center of gravity and leverage. I love this breakdown of his technique!!! This was the style of play that I used up until I blew my knee out my freshman year against UCLA. I was a shorter defensive tackle/nose guard at 6 foot even and we ran a 3 man front so I was always having to plug the A gaps and shut down the run. Thanks for sharing!!! Great video!!
Love your content my friend, I subbed. Keep it up! Huge Rams fan here...
Man, love your vids!
He has the most explosive speed that I have ever seen in watching football for 50 years.
As a very under-sized D-lineman (a 5'5 205 pound senior) I was watching this and I found that many of the things that Donald does to negate his lack of NFL size are very similar to things that I do. Especially power rushing with my hands on the shoulder to get the O-lineman turned then finishing with a quick rip and squareing my hips back. Im looking forward to my senior year and my first year getting significant time as a starter (I was starting last year, but blew my knee out 2 games into the season with 12 tackles and 2 sacks). And Im definetly going to have to try that hand swipe combo
Great video. Excellent analysis.
I saw Aaron Donald play firsthand in both High School and then later at Pitt. The man was an ANIMAL. I distinctly remember watching a Pitt vs. WVU game where they TRIPLE teamed this man and he still got to the quarterback. Everyone that saw him KNEW he was beyond special.... and to think... he grew up right down the road from us here in Pittsburgh
GREAT content!
Great video man !
love ur D-line analysis please do more!
As usual, excellent detailed analysis mixed with a little too much hyperbole. Overall, great stuff!
Now put Suh on the line with him, and Peters and Talib locking down the corners! Rams to the Super Bowl!
Aaron Braddock fuck you got them all
LAH362 and they’re going to the super bowl...
Aaron Braddock Hey. They went !!! Good call. They tried my man
Thank you for the video! Hopefully it pleases the football gods!Go rams!
I could literally watch this all day long... Loved it...
I have to say it again... GREAT BREAKDOWN, outstanding work!
i love your videos ! keep it up bro !
Always great content Brett! I've always wanted to know what makes Aaron Donald so good.
man you really nailed the 2014 draft. You should go back and do a recap, it would be very educational to know how you were able to make these calls and why you might have got some wrong.
6:03 The O-lineman on the ground looks so defeated he put his head down like damn this dude is unstoppable.
This video has aged extraordinarily well. I think the 2021 season cemented him as a surefire HOFer, even if he retires after the SB
Do a video of a possible Jags vs Vikings matchup, I'm intrigued to see how a game like that would pan out
Nolan Pratt Blaine gabbert is barely below kirk cousins level of garbage and it just be watching garbage burn the whole game and the Vikings would win by a last second kirk cousins forced fumble on an attempted pick 6
This guy helps me so much in developing as a D-Line player
I transit his theories and expertise in my own game and my mind and it helps me alot
Your analysis is spot on. AD reminds me of Merlin Olsen, but much more explosive on the initial start. MO used finesse to untangle the arms and hands of the offensive lineman. AD uses his upper arms to ward off the hands and arms of the OL.
Even when he is double teamed, AD quickness disables the OL team as to where they could plant their feet to stabilize the stance. AD has that rare agility to upset the mind of the OL. He is one of a kind. He should get the money he deserves (70mil+)
I'll come back to this video 15 years later
great video. Holy shit I don't want the bolts to play the rams even more than I did before.
another great video
Glad to here he's killin it this year. I wish I'd been watching him more, one of my favorite players.
Donald vs Mack. A discussion actually worth talking about
stormtrooper 2817 two different positions completely
not exactly, and the translation from 4-3DE/ 3-4LOLB to 3-4DE 4-3DT is better than trying to compare Mack or Donald to say a CB
stormtrooper 2817 There's a pretty large difference between an interior defender and an edge defender, Donald is usually a two gap defender facing interior blockers while Mack usually only has one gap responsibility and faces tackles and has to deal with TEs, you could compare them but it would be like comparing Tyrann Mathieu to Richard Sherman, they both play coverage and do alot of the same things, but Mathieu has different responsibilities.
And to think, Rams were in position to draft them both... and used the #2 pick on Greg Robinson!
To think Mack was almost a ram
That draft was one of the few times I knew 100% a guy was going to be a HOF type player. As a Bears fan I knew he was perfect for the 3 technique position, a position they desperately needed, and would instantly make that defense relevant. Him going a single pick before the Bears were on the board hurt. Hurts even more knowing just how right I was. Not to mention how bad that defense ended up without a decent pass rush. We had garbage at DT that year.
Damn, Brett...it seems like you don’t miss ANYTHING. I’ve never seen anyone so attentive and aware of every little thing in football. “Biomechanics” and shit, lol.
Coming back to this it is hard to believe but he is actually improving somehow
I love this video
well, good prediction
I feel like you should do a review video of all your past predictions. Some might be pretty funny.
Um you should do Cameron Jordan of the saints 🤦🏽♂️ now that man is underrated ! Geat video none the less
Yes, awesome vid
PFF has a 99.7 rating on him this year just absolutely ridiculous......nobody plays his position better than Aaron Donald. He plays DT better than Brady and Rodgers play QB
Well said
This video aged very very well!
Can we eventually get a segment titled "Film Room Throwbacks" featuring older HOF players and what made them great from a breakdown and technique point of view?
This dude is real life All-Madden difficulty
You should do a Ndamukong Suh or Vince Wilfork technique video too!
Lot of his sacks were against 1 on 1 blocking. Crazy that he's not doubled on every play
They try and block him one on one for like a second because they dont want to get beat by a blitz but thats all the time donald needs
Last week I chuckled on Sheldon Young comment about the "film room curse", then AB injured. Now I swear if something happens to the Rams or Aaron Donald, don't jinx it Brett! 😅
Brett did a video on Detroit focusing on Stafford, many weeks ago and he is still eligible to play and sneak Lions into playoffs, so I would say if curse is only in your mind.
As a 49er fan I can assure you this guy should be DPOY. If you watch him on tape he's either getting a sack or forcing the QB out of the pocket. Brett can you do a video on Jimmy G? There's something special brewing out in San Fran.
As a Texans fan, I was making the case that had Wade Phillips stayed on as defensive coordinator when Bill O'Brien got hired, you could have made a case to draft Aaron Donald over Clowney & Mack. Could you imagine having to deal with Watt & Donald as an interior pass rush duo? This season is also validating my thoughts as we see what happens if Wade Phillips got a hold of Donald.
Could you do a Film Room about Oline ? Not neccessarily the best Olinemen in the game but the best overall oline in the NFL and how do they operate and the chemistry behind it ? It's a very interesting subject ever since you talk about Jordan Howard last year. This is coming from a Raiders fan trying cheer ourselves up after a huge dissapointing season..
To think that the Lions would have had Aaron Donald, Ziggy Ansah and Darius Slay
They could have also had tj watt
And ndamakong shu
To think that the Texans could have had Watt & Donald together
0-16
Wild card loss
I like how he beat the guard before the end even hits the tackle
My guy 💡
Really good content. However ass a pass rusher you do not want lateral separation from the offensive lineman. Ideally you want to be right on their hip after your hand move and bend the circle.
I think Jordan still has a shot, not only has he punished QBs with hurries and sacks, the same amount as Donald, but he's terrific in the run game with more tackles than Donald, and has AMAZING PBU skills. He has more pass defended than most cornerbacks this year!
I hope we see one about the prevent defense soon
Would appreciate a follow up on the Deforest Buckner vid showing how he's increased his pressure numbers so much
Do more game plans!!! Like Zimmer v McVay!
A video dedicated to the importance of Linval Jospeh in the Vikings defense would be interesting
Marshon Lattimore v Julio Jones??? You said you’d do it earlier. Or is Lattimore injured? Also, do Darius Slay
FINALLY , Thank you!!!
This Aged beautifully
I would love to see you go over Cameron Jordan
I watched a 10min ad for you
Thanks boo
Could you make a video on rodgers return game against panthers...I wonder why he performed subpar! Thanks!
Make a video on thee underrated Mike Daniels!
Hard to say if he is actually better than John randle. One thing is for sure Donald isn't even close to the entertainer that John randle was. He was borderline psycho
One of my all time favorites. He's a maniac.
I still can't believe he was undrafted. Vikings always seem to find great undrafted talent.
Jesse just imagine all the people that go undrafted and never make it in the nfl that could make that impact. Look at thielen
Do you have film on randle
donald is an avid student of the game as well. he is constantly breaking down film and making notes on every lineman he will likely face that week.
if there is a weakness in a blocker you can be assured donald knows about it.
Aaron Donald is a monster, he needs to be given more recognition.
Damn u was right
Calais Campbell, nuff said
what about him?
paul k more sacks and touchdowns
What about Bobby Wagner, this guy is as elite and consistently as it gets. He’s very underrated it’s a shame.
Exactly, no one is showing bobby any love.
Right now, I'm leaning towards Donald, but Wagner is my number 2 right now
Search Samuel Gold he does similar vids and did one on wags
Objective Panther Fan lol dumbass he was dealing with a hamstring injury but ya know ur just a stupid ass casual
phillip nguyen Even if he is dealing with an injury that is still part of the talk for MVP. If you play through an injury you are responsible for the statistics that come with it. Allowing Gurley to have an amazing game like that (while not all his fault, it is the defense’s fault as a whole) really hurts his chances because it goes against his consistency and also discredits the fact that the Seahawks defense is what is winning them games (even though besides that, it really is. Especially with how good they have been without Kam/Sherman.)
Explosive speed, shoulder and arm strength with finesse makes AD the best defensive lineman in the NFL. Pay him what he is worth !!
Remember when Donald wasn't a starter in his first4 career games? Vintage Jeff Fisher
I think Raider fans are happy with CURRENT DPOY Khalil Mack.
Well now they both have one lol
If y'all wanna see him play in high school look up Penn Hills Indians football network 2009 highlights or games
He was #59 btw
Make a video on Terrell Suggs, hes playing like he has found the fountain of youth
I been saying that since last year. I mean just look at his status from a DT. Dude is a beast
I would like to see a video about how Adam Thielen has been so successful this season
Did Brett play ball as an O lineman? Love his insight!
He will be the best 3 tech ever by far. He is the best defender by a huge margin. First ballot. 11 sacks in 14 games as a freaking 3 tech. Insane.
So the raiders could have picked Aaron Donald and Khalil mack with back to back picks. And the best players on the board a couple years ago were gronk earl kam dez and demariyus yet we didn't pick any of them. Kill me now
Mohammed Nana No, Donald was in that same draft class with Mack & Clowney. It would have been an either/or case for the Raiders, not both.
Mohammed Nana what the fuck are you talking about? No they didn't
Hank Hill oh shit I don't know wtf I was thinking
Rams could have gotten both Mack and Donald at least. That would have been something.
Brett Kollmann let's not think about that for Russel Wilson's sake
U r better than ESPN football analyst
Do a Tyreek Hill video, he didn’t get a pro bowl nod as wide receiver but has over 1000 yards and more 50+ yard touchdowns than anybody.
I did one!
Brett Kollmann oh my mistake, I’ll check it out
Lit.
We gotta see why Marquise Goodwin has been an elite receiver since Jimmy G has joined the squad
