[QUOTE="AmishMafia, post: 1099372, member: 2846"] Rookie DL very rarely make impacts. Even guys drafted in the top 10 still take a year or two to become impactful. And as high draft picks, they are playing for poor teams that are likely talent deprived. The chance for a 3rd rounder to come in and contribute on a good team as a rookie is very slim. Brandon Cisse is A true student of the game with great upside. But i can't see him being good right away. He will take a year or 2. Jager Burton is a good bet, but i think he needs someone to get injured to Crack the starting lineup. So, I am going with [B]Trey Smack[/B]. He may not even make the team, but i think he will and have a positive impact on a few close games Taking a step: [B]Jordan Morgan[/B] He is going to get a full off-season to concentrate on 1 position and it will make a difference. His physical similarities to Zach Tom are noteworthy. From what I can tell, he seems to have the same fire and drive to become better. I think he will make a big impact and represent a big upgrade over Walker. Word on the street is that Gute wanted him to be starting last year but let the coaches call the shots. With 3 thugs manning the middle of the OL:Banks, Rhyan, and Belton, Tom and Morgan should be able to concentrate on the edge rushers. [B]Lucas Van Ness[/B] Enough excuses with the injuries. He is completely healthy and looks faster and stronger in OTAs and he was already very fast and strong. With no Parsons, there is going to be a lot on his plate and I think he will rise to the occasion. I appreciate Parsons continually singling him out as an impending break out superstar. Parsons knows what one looks like and sees him every day. [B]Matthew Golden[/B] He looked very impressive as a rookie, continually getting open and when getting an opportunity, taking advantage. I think if Love looked his way more, he could have set some rookie receiver records for the Packers. But there were a lot of great targets and recievers that Love was probably just more comfortable with. With losing Doubs and Wicks, Golden is going to get more looks and could have a big season. There are a lot of players who are likely going to be better this season. Cooper (sophomore slump over), Belton (offseason at RG), Rhyan (offseason at OC), Bullard (sophomore slump), Williams (sophomore slump), Banks (offseason of practice), Brooks (playing his natural position), and Lloyd (injury free) are the next list of ‘most likely’. You can rightfully argue that some of these players are already good and can’t ‘break out’. But I think these players may improve in a significant way and be even better. Which will make for a very entertaining and interesting season ahead with lots of possibilities. [/QUOTE]
