Pro Football Focus does great work. According to their metrics, Wake is the top ranked 43 DE in the NFL with a score of 45. JPP is 2nd....with 24.

Last year Wake was 1st among 34 OLB's in the NFL.
In 2010 he was 3rd.
In 2009 he was 3rd.

Assuming he gets 3 sacks in these last 3 games, he'll have had 40 sacks in the last 3 seasons. JT's best every 3 year span consisted of 41.5 sacks.

His consistency year in and year out is ridiculous. He doesn't make as many impact plays as Jason Taylor did obviously, but I think his overall impact on this defense is very compatible. Had he not waited until he was 28 to realize his potential, I think he's a 1st ballot HOF type player.

Jeff Ireland get's a lot of criticism, and rightfully so on some occasions. But he found a real gem when he found Cameron.

If Miami could add another pass rusher through the draft or free agency, Wake would put up even better numbers. IMO Wake is the only superstar on Miami's roster now that Long's play has continued to decline.

When does he get frustrated enough to want out?
I mean at some point what few studs we have are going to want to win.

Yeah and to add to his great playing ability, lets not forget he didnt try to rob us either taking a respectful but not over the top contract..

I think he ranks around 12 in pay scale, yet performs like # 1..

Lets find 52 more just like him....
