No. 3 – SS Landon Collins

Landon Collins might be the most obvious player to have the chance at making the Pro Bowl out of everyone I have listed so far. In his five-year career, he has already been selected to the Pro Bowl three times and has a first team All-Pro nomination to his name. Collins even had an argument to deserve a Pro Bowl nomination in 2019.

Last season, Collins accumulated 117 tackles, two forced fumbles, four pass deflections, 1.0 sack, and nine tackles for loss. Even though this performance was not enough to get Collins to the Pro Bowl, it was one of his best statistical seasons to date.

Next season, Collins should be an enforcer and a prime contributor in Jack Del Rio’s defense. If Collins can continue to produce like he did and put up similiar numbers as last season, he should be awarded with his fourth Pro Bowl appearance.
