The underrated Rams’ defensive tackle is the heart and soul of a defense that was the only reason to watch the woebegone franchise take the field this year.

Ranked as the number one player in the game by Pro Football Focus, Donald disrupts any offensive game plan and is a one of the only reasons the Rams were watchable this season.

At only 25 years old, if the Rams organization can put a team around him, he will be a definite superstar.
