Defense has become a lost art in today’s games. The rules make it nearly impossible for guys to hold their own against the offense. Nonetheless, a handful of players still finda way to make an impact.

That’s why every team needs to have a defensive anchor leading the way, and these are some of the best there are. Check out the top 3 candidates for this year’s DPOY.
<h2>NFL Rumors: Top 3 Candidates For Defensive Player Of The Year</h2>
<h3>3. Chris Jones</h3>

</div>
Most people questioned the Kansas City Chiefsdefense, and rightfully so, as they’ve put themselves in tough spots more often than not. But that doesn’t make Chris Jones any less of a force.
We’re talking about a tackle-breaking machine with a great instinct for reaching the opposing quarterback. And if it wasn’t for any of the other guys we’re about to name, he’d be leading this list by a long stretch.
<h3>2. Micah Parsons</h3>
<div style="text-align:center">

</div>
Micah Parsons will be the league’s defensive driving force for years to come. He’s already the most versatile defender in the league, and has proven that he has the upside to be a generational talent.
Parsons will find a way to disrupt the offense, regardless of where you line him up. He’s a linebacker, and he’s a defensive back; he’s Micah Parsons. The Dallas Cowboys found themselves a superstar.
<h3>1. Nick Bosa</h3>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image"> <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20230106_BUS_210688_nick_bosa_x1x.jpg_22993414_281c8980.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=413" width="740" height="413"></figure><figcaption> Nick Bosa – Getty Images </figcaption></figure>
</div>
It’s a shame that Nick Bosa isn’t getting any real consideration for being this year’s Most Valuable Player. He’s been the best player in arguably the best team in the league, and it’s not even close.
Bosa has been posting video-game-like numbers since Week One, proving that he can be one of the greatest stoppers this game has ever seen when he’s at full strength. He’s a lock to take the award home this year.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/NFL-News-Odell-Beckham-Jr.s-red-flag-that-keeps-the-Bills-away-from-signing-him-20221207-0025.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Odell Beckham Jr.’s</a> rehab had seemingly gone well. However, the latest report states that the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/NFL-News-Dak-Prescott-reacts-to-Jerry-Jones-controversial-racist-rally-photo-20221202-0012.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dallas Cowboys</a> were <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/NFL-News-Odell-Beckham-Jr.-receives-no-offer-by-the-first-team-he-visited-20221207-0037.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">concerned about his knee’s status</a>, raising some doubts about his ability to be back on the field at all this season.
The Cowboys were heavily linked to the LSU product for months now. Players like Trevon Diggs, Micah Parsons, and even Dak Prescott openly recruited him and stated that the interest was mutual.
Now, however, it seems like we’ll have to wait some more before the former <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/NFL-News-Odell-Beckham-Jr.-will-never-sign-with-the-Dallas-Cowboys-now-20221207-0010.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Giants, Browns, and Rams star</a>is all padded up again. According to a conversation he had with Parsons, he won’t be ready for another month or so.
<h2>NFL News: Odell Beckham Jr. Still Needs Five More Weeks</h2>
“He told me five weeks. Five weeks,” Parsons told the Dallas Morning News. “No trainer, no doctor, no anybody can tell a player who he feels. It’s your body. That’s for anything. Any part of your body [that’s] hurt. No one can tell you how your body is going to feel except for you. If that’s what he says, I always believe it. If they say no, my body hurts, I can’t go. You have to respect that.”
“Obviously, he knew we wanted him,” Parsons added. “We just wanted to make him feel at home. There’s only so much you can say to a guy that he doesn’t know. This ain’t college. I’m not going to feed him, ‘You’re going to get the best education.’ I’m pretty sure he knows who he’s got here. It’s more we wanted to make him feel at home. The Dallas fans made him do that.”

We’re already in Week 14, so we’re talking about postseason football in five more weeks. So, it remains to be seen whether a team will be willing to take such a risk and sign him, regardless of how athletic, talented, and impactful he is.

Dan Quinn sure deserves plenty of credit for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/why-are-the-dallas-cowboys-considered-so-popular-20220515-0021.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dallas Cowboys’</a> defensive turnaround. They went from a <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/dallas-cowboys-opponents-for-the-upcoming-2022-nfl-season-20220503-0012.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">bottom-feeding defense</a> to one of the most electric units in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-rumors-multiple-teams-want-to-sign-robert-griffin-iii-20220504-0009.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NFL</a> within one year. But as much as Quinn helped, having Micah Parsons around sure did wonders as well.
Parsons was arguably the most versatile defender in the league last season. The Cowboys lined him up all over the field, and he excelled at every position he played, giving them a jack of all trades like the league hadn’t seen in quite a while.
That, plus Trevon Diggs’ unmatched ability to pile up interceptions, makes the Cowboys’ defense an intriguing unit ahead of next season. And, to Parsons, they could be as good or even better than the Super Bowl-winning duo of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/rams-aaron-donald-new-contract-is-close-to-100m-bucks-20220606-0036.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Aaron Donald</a> and Jalen Ramsey.
<h2>NFL News: Micah Parsons Says He And Trevon Diggs Can Be Better Than Aaron Donald And Jalen Ramsey</h2>
“It’s hard to say we’re the best because I know we’re young and we still make mistakes,” Parsons told USA TODAY Sports. “It’s hard to put us over [Los Angeles Rams defensive lineman] Aaron Donald, the greatest defensive player in history, with Jalen Ramsey. So I won’t do it yet. But I think we can become them or even better if we learn together and stick together.”

<h2>He’s Just Getting Started And Will Only Get Better</h2>
Parsons felt great in his first season in the league. He played linebacker, cornerback, safety, and defensive lineman. That’s a lot to ask from a first-year player, yet he thinks he’s only going to get better in year two:
“I would just say last year I was a fish in the water,” Parsons said of his rookie season.“I was still growing so much mentally and as a player, and I think when you’re a rookie first getting in the league, you’re trying to see if you belong or not. I think I kind of know where I want to be and where I’m at in this league.I believe in myself and my confidence.”

<h2>Diggs Was The True DPOY, Says Parsons</h2>
People criticize Trevon Diggs for the yards and touchdowns he gave up last season. Even so, Parsons believes he should’ve won Defensive Player of the Year because of his 11 interceptions:
“Without a doubt I thought he was the best defensive player in the league last year,” Parsons said. “We’ve seen 20 sacks before. But in this era, we’ve never seen anyone reach 10-plus interceptions. So it’s disrespectful to me, because I think he deserves all the credit in the world and deserves to be named a top-five corner if not the best corner in the league.”
At the end of the day, individual accolades mean nothing if the team doesn’t win football games. Diggs and Parsons sure can help the Cowboys in that regard, so let’s see if they can put their money where their mouth is.
