10 NFL Players Who Are Having Surprisingly Great Seasons
9. David Bakhtiari
If you’re a NFL fan outside of Green Bay you may have no idea who Bakhtari is. David Bakhtiari was Green Bay’s 4th round draft pick out of Colorado in 2013 and is the player that made Green Bay move Bryan Bulaga over from left tackle to right tackle. Bakhtiari has been starting at left tackle since he came into the league in 2013 showing promise early on and improving every year.
This year Bakhtiari went from a solid left tackle to a player who should be considered for Pro Bowl and All-Pro honors. His performance as a pass blocker is a big reason that Green Bay has only allowed 17 sacks through 9 games.
