When Aldon becomes an every down backer, he will be more tired from the previous plays and not be as explosive rushing the passer. BOOM

DE Aldon Smith, San Francisco 49ers (Age: 22)
Smith is the third pass rusher to make this list. He recorded 14 sacks during his rookie year despite not starting a single game. He has an outstanding feel for rushing the passer. He is sudden off the snap and he has a wide variety of hand moves to defeat offensive tackles. He needs to improve his play against the run, but he's already established himself as one of the league's elite pass-rushers.
LB NaVorro Bowman, San Francisco 49ers (Age. 23)
Playing linebacker for the 49ers and finding a way to escape the shadow ofPatrick Willis is not an easy task. Bowman was able to do just that with a monstrous sophomore season in San Francisco. He led the team with 143 tackles and also chipped in with two sacks. He is a prototype linebacker. He can run sideline to sideline, he's an explosive tackler, he can cover and he can blitz. He checks every box on a coach's LB wish list.

hard to argue against anyone in the top 10, but if I'm a Seahawks fan I'm salty that Earl Thomas didn't make it
