Our updated NFL rookie rankings: Jets, Seahawks dominate our top 10 (7. DE Aidan Hutchinson (Stats: 33 tackles, 6 sacks, 2 INTs, 1 fumble recovery, Drafted: No. 2):  Why he's here: Hutchinson has been a do-it-all player for the Lions' defense during a recent winning streak. His ability to get to the quarterback is well known, but the way he impacts games with interceptions and key tackles shows the all-around skill set that the No. 2 pick brings on game day. -- Miller.  Going forward: There was a recent decision to put Hutchinson out wider in the formation, in a two-point stance at times, and it has had a positive impact. He has three sacks, two interceptions and an eight-tackle game since the Lions made the move, so expect the stats to keep coming in. -- Legwold.  Which late-rounder is overperforming right now?  Reid: James Houston, OLB, Detroit Lions (No. 217 pick). Since being elevated from the practice squad, Houston has been a bright spot for the Lions. He was the first player in franchise history to record a multi-sack game in his NFL debut. The former Jackson State product has been productive opposite Hutchinson. Now signed to the active roster, he's a name to keep an eye on moving forward.):  https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/35195925/2022-nfl-rookie-rankings-where-garrett-wilson-chris-olave-christian-watson-stack-top-10-plus-risers-qb-report
