He came to play yesterday. Carpenter, Lewis, Sweezy; he beat all of those guys at least once.

Also, for those who are interested in such things, he ended the year as PFF's highest graded DT (+34.5); the only DT to finish with a top five grade in pass rush and run defense; 4th in run stop percentage and 7th in PRP(pass rush productivity). Also sixth highest overall grade for a DT since they started tracking such things(2007).

I think he's got DROY in the bag. And I know he didn't pile up the tackles like Suh did in 2010, but I also think he's got just as strong an argument for making the AP All Pro team(as Suh did as a rookie).

According to pro football reference Aaron Donald ended the season with 20.5 tackles for loss, which is the 3rd most by a DT over the last 10 seasons 1 behind Suh in 2014 and 1.5 behind Geno Atkins in 2012. Not bad for a rookie who didn't start the first 4 games.

Donald is a monster. There are times when he needs to play a little more assignment sound but the guy consistently wins when left 1 on 1...against both the run and pass.
