3. Foye Oluokun

Foye Oluokun now has three seasons under his belt and we are really starting to see him take shape as a player and potential star linebacker on that defense.

Oluokun had his best season in every single statistical category this season, coming away with 117 tackles, four tackles for loss and four forced fumbles. He finished the year tied for third in forced fumbles across the league.

Oluokon is developing into a middle-linebacker that could absolutely anchor that Falcons defense for the long run.
