Trio of Cyclones

Devy / By /

The Iowa State Cyclones have a trio of linebackers that should be on your devy radars. This group complements each other extremely well and all three play a different style.

In the history of the NFL, there have only been seven players that have recorded back to back seasons of 135+ tackle seasons, in their first two years in the league.

As I mentioned, we could add two more after this season, but there have been three previous instances of having multiple players accomplish this in the same season. What’s interesting is that every time this feat has happened, there has always been multiple players in the same season. Never has there only been one player at a time to accomplish this.

Indianapolis has had bad luck (pun intended) the last few seasons, and are desperate for talent. Their defensive unit is one of the worst in the league and needs a lot of quality and depth. They have made a number of moves through draft and free agency, to try and get younger, as well as
