Brandon Graham is still searching for his first season posting double digits in sacks, but that still hasn’t stopped the Eagles star from amassing respect around the league.
Even as moves into the twilight of his career, Graham is still a presence, and in a Pro Football Focus ranking of the top-25 edge rushers in football, Graham landed at No. 9, ahead of big names like Jadeveon Clowney
9. BRANDON GRAHAM, PHILADELPHIA EAGLES
It took years for Graham to get the recognition and credit he deserves as one of the best edge rushers of his generation, but his consistency and impact for the Eagles has been remarkable over the past decade. Graham has always been looked down upon a little because of a lack of sacks, and while that prevents him from rivaling the likes of Von Miller at his best over the last decade, the volume of pressure he gets puts him pretty close. Graham has averaged 76 total pressures and a PFF overall grade of 88.7 over the past four seasons. He is still a relentless presence on the D-line that opposing offenses have to contend with each week.
The addition of Javon Hargrave, coupled with the return of Malik Jackson should finally allow Graham to reach the 10+ plus sack target in what could be his last season with the Eagles.
