Pre-Camp Reads: Looking at LB Derrick Johnson from Chiefs.com

After missing nearly all of 2014, Johnson returned to lead the defense with 116 (95 solo) tackles and he also recorded 4.0 sacks.

Johnson made franchise history against the Green Bay Packers on Monday Night Football during Week 3 last season, when he recorded the 999th and 1000th tackle of his career.

Johnson broke the record with a tackle of running back James Starks midway through the third quarter.

"It's going to speak for itself," Johnson said of the record. "It's going to answer the questions if you're questioning if I'm tough, if I'm consistent and if I'm reliable. It's a blessing just to get to that point where you say, 'Man, I have a chance to be at the top of that list.'

AFC West Q&A: Minus QBs, which team in division has the best skill players? from ESPN

Paul Gutierrez, Oakland Raiders reporter: 1. Broncos: Hard to go against the champs, even if their Lombardi Trophy was claimed on the strength of their defense. But with two 1,000-yard receivers in Demaryius Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders, a pair of running backs with 12 combined rushing TDs and a rehabbing pass-catching tight end in Jeff Heuerman, well, there it is. Even if the two QBs who generated that offense are now gone. Still, we were told to remove QBs from the equation. 2. Raiders: Crazy, right?

Top five RB classes of all-time: Will Fournette and Co. join list? from NFL.com

There might not be any all-time greats in the 2008 running back class, but it's probably the deepest class in NFL history. It was clear the group was going to be fantastic when you considered that seven of the top eight rushers in college football in 2007 were picked in the top three rounds of the following spring's draft. The 2008 group has produced more than 50,000 career rushing yards, seven backs with 5,000 yards each, five Pro Bowlers and 323 touchdowns scored -- and that's just among those selected in the first three rounds. And they're not done yet! Forte, Johnson, McFadden and Stewart ranked among the top 17 rushers in the league last season.

NFL: Baltimore Ravens don't possess a top defensive line from Baltimore Beatdown

Not being top five is clearly understandable. Hell, I'm okay with not landing in the top 10. Baltimore cannot stack up to 10, the Miami Dolphins. Miami has Ndamukong Suh, Mario Williams and Cameron Wake. Brandon Williams, Timmy Jernigan andLawrence Guy don't outproduce these names. It doesn't help we don't run 4-3, and outside linebackers are not included in the list.

Baltimore should however be mentioned at twelfth on the list, pushing Kansas City out of the last spot talked about.
