No real surprise here at number 1. SI ranked Shawne "Lights Out" Merriman as the best defender in the NFL under 25. I love to argue with all lists, but this one is hard to argue with. No rookies were put in the top 10. Tell me if you can think of anyone who got left off.

Shaup Phillips - LB, Chargers and Nnamdi Asomugha - CB, Raiders

Wow, I take it back...now that I actually checked my facts those guys are way older than I thought. Still pretty good young defenders, though :)

I'm from San Diego and it's blasphemy to say Phillips is better than Merriman. He's not.
