Ten under-the-radar players to watch

Colorado's undersized tackling machine of a linebacker, senior Jordon Dizon, made 336 career tackles and finished second in the nation this year with 149, including a whopping 107 solo stops. While he can rush the passer, his job is to patrol against the run and keep short pass plays from bursting into home runs. While he's tough as nails and always brings his man down, he can be knocked around by any offensive lineman on the move.

Horse****! He avoids and sheds twice as many OL blocks than are made on him. That's how he racked up so many tackles.

Plus, I wouldn't characterize the B12 DPOY, consensus AA, and Butkis award finalist as "under the radar."

That's was kind of my thought. How does someone who can be knocked around by ANY offensive lineman on the move have 109 solo tackles on the year. I mean you would think there would have been at least 1 time this year some lineman would have tried to put a block on him.
