2011 draft class showcased pass rushers.

Ok we all know about miller, watt and smith. What about that second tier of guys like Houston, Quinn and Kerrigan? I was just talking with a coworker about the ridiculous amount of pass rushing ability that came out of that class. Could go down as one of the best ever when its all said and done.

Also forgot sheard and brooks reed.

83 was the year of the QB's, 11 was the year of the pass rush.

exactly, and this class vs the qb class of 12 will be fun to watch for years.

Ok, I'm a homer on this topic but I just needed to bump it. Robert Quinn now has 4 sacks after two, Watt: 2; Aldon Smith: 3.5; Houston: 3, Kerrigan:3 I'll say it again, this was like a perfect storm scenario in which some of the best pass rushers we've seen come into the league in recent years, just happened to be in the same class and it just happened to one year prior to the amazing qb class of 2012. Gonna love this discussion for a long time. Especially when Von comes back.

Quinn is the kid I really liked going into that draft and he sure looks to be on a crazy pace this year.
