8. Marshon Lattimore

2018 Season: Games Played: 2 | 7 Tackles | 1 Assist

Last Week vs Browns: 4 Tackles | 1 Assist 

Marshon Lattimore had an epic season last year in which he won Defensive Rookie of the year at corner back thanks to a stat line of 43 tackles, 5 interceptions and a forced fumble. This season, he already has a forced fumble along with 7 tackles and an assist.

It is going to be hard for Lattimore to create the magic that he did last year in his rookie of the year run, especially with how bad the Saints defense looked in week 1 against Ryan Fitzpatrick and the Buccaneers.

7. Carlos Hyde

2018 Season: Games Played 2 | 38 Carries | 105 Yards | 2.8 Y/C | 2 TD

Last Week vs Saints: 16 Carries | 43 Yards | 2.7 Y/C | 1 TD

Carlos Hyde’s move back to Ohio has gone pretty well so far this season. In his first season for the Browns, he has been able to obtain 105 rushing yards and 2 touchdowns on 38 carries.

This all coming behind a very shaky Cleveland Browns offensive line. Hopefully as the season carries on Hyde will begin to see bigger holes open up and increase his yards per carry number.
