Raekown McMillan | 8 Tackles, 1 TFL

In what may come as a surprise, a second Dolphin makes the list this week after Raekwon McMillan had a good game against the Chargers this weekend.

McMillan has been a leader on an admittedly bad defense this year, but that is no fault of the third year player.

The former Ohio State linebacker has been the highest graded player on the Dolphins according to PFF player grades.

The Dolphins have really liked McMillan’s ability to tackle in space and will keep expecting big things from him as they continue to rebuild. Hopefully for the sake of everyone in Miami, McMillan can grow into a pro bowl level linebacker leading the middle of the Dolphins defense.

Now for an “old” Buckeye. Doesn’t this guy seem to keep getting better when other players lose a step after playing in the NFL this long?
