Denver Broncos LB Brandon M. Marshall has been named the team’s Pro Football Focus’ Secret Superstar.
Marshall, of course, is well known among us former IAOFMers. But when you look at his potential role in Wade Phillips’ 3-4 defense, Marshall could be even better than he was last year.
We often forget how good Marshall was in coverage last year (PFF rated him +10.1 for last season) and how he only got better as the season progressed. As PFF notes, his shift to the strong side should take better advantage of his ability as a run stopper and in coverage.
It should be fun to see what he can do.
