1. Khalil Mack, OLB, Chargers. Age: 34.

Khalil Mack notched 18 sacks in 2023. That number dropped to seven last year. He obviously wasn’t as good this past season, but he played better than his sack number indicates. The main worry is age (34).

2. Haason Reddick, OLB, Jets. Age: 30.

Haason Reddick is an extremely talented edge player, but he had a very disappointing season last year in which he missed numerous games due to a contract disputes.

3. Matthew Judon, OLB, Falcons. Age: 33.

Matthew Judon was a huge disappointment in Atlanta, registering six sacks last year. Perhaps he’ll rebound, but he could also just be done.

4. Azeez Ojulari, OLB, Giants. Age: 25.

Azeez Ojulari is a 25-year-old who logged seven sacks last year despite starting just five games. Ojulari missed the final six weeks with a toe injury.

Dennis Gardeck has emerged as a solid, well-rounded linebacker, but he tore his ACL in October last season.

A former first-round pick, Joe Tryon has been a disappointment. He logged just two sacks in 2024. He still has some potential, but time is running out for him.
