Combined edge-rushers of Cameron Jordan & Marcus Davenport

The second player(s) to make this list is actually two edge-rushers who will combine together.

Cameron Jordan is a star, no doubt, but I actually think it could be Marcus Davenport who proves to be the bigger problem for the Bucs.

Why? Because he’ll be going up against rookie RT Tristan Wirfs.

Wirfs has gotten better over the course of Training Camp, but let’s not pretend that there aren’t still concerns about his game. Look for the Saints to try and use exotic blitz schemes and set up match-ups that don’t go in favor of Wirfs.

The combined edge-rushing ability of Jordan and Davenport could prove to be a killer for the Bucs offensively if the line can’t hold their blocks and give Tom Brady time to throw the ball.
