Miller has been a big reason why the Broncos are now a contender for the division title in the AFC West, with his 9.5 sacks, in ten games.

I'd put Cam Newton as the second-best rookie, so far. Newton has thrown for over 2,600 yards, and 11 touchdowns, while running for another 374 yards and seven touchdowns.

How about former LSU cornerback Patrick Peterson, now with the Arizona Cardinals? Peterson has been not only a solid corner, but has also been outstanding in the return game.

How would you rank this year's NFL rookie class?
