Rams' Robert Quinn on Aaron Donald: He's 'special'

Aaron Donald's first year in the NFL went about as good as he could have hoped for, culminating in a 2014 Defensive Rookie of the Year award.

What will he do for an encore? 

Robert Quinn had no hesitations to heap praise on his teammate in an interview alongside Donald with NFL Media's Andrew Siciliano. 

When asked whether the Rams' defense can be great this year, Quinn had one name to throw out as a big reason why.

"Aaron Donald," Quinn stated. "That dude is special. I'm not saying that cause he's my teammate. Me, personally, I don't think there's a guard that can block him 1-on-1. He's so fast, so strong. Aaron always has a counter to create separation or get in the backfield. It's only Year 2, so who know what else he has up his sleeve." 

Quinn is right. How high is Donald's ceiling?

That's something to watch for in 2015 and for years to come.
