[QUOTE="tynimiller, post: 913371, member: 6578"] So a reflection on this class and discussion occurred here late last season: [URL]https://www.packerforum.com/threads/2019-draft-class-beginning-to-prove-it-in-2020.83791/[/URL] Now like I did for the 2020 class, going to take a stab at predicting the 2019's third NFL season coming up. Many argue that this season is when most franchise's crystalize their opinion of precisely what you have in a player - good or bad. Few players are still unknowns heading into their fourth seasons, with fewer yet making massive change of directions career wise at that point (happens just not a lot of shocking suprises). [B]Rashan Gary [/B]- Well he basically doubled his snap count to just shy of 45% this last year, played even higher in the playoffs and illustrated time and time again just why the team was so high on him and "wasted" a draft pick on him while we had both Smiths and Fackrell his rookie year. He's easily going to eclipse 50% of the snaps this season - as he is too good not to find ways to get him on the field for us. Last year had 5 sacks, 34 tackles, 5 TFLs and 11 QBHits...[B]I believe he ups across the board by about 25-30% - I'll predict he sees around 55% of the snaps, 7.5 sacks, 44 tackles, 8 TFLs and 19 QBHits Darnell Savage[/B] - Dude has played over 80% or more of snaps in the two seasons he's been here.

Last year he had 75 Tackles, 4 INTs, 12 PDs, 1 Sack - [B]I'll go 80 Tackles, 5 INTs, 15 PDs, 2 Sacks this season. Elgton Jenkins[/B] - There is nothing needed to be said. He is arguably top 5 OL under 26 years of age in the league IMO and will continue to be. He will start all 16 games barring injury, will do so for us at minimum two different spots and grade out high yet again.
