    seriously, homerism aside, he's been playing good in the preseason, he just needs to stay healthy and San Diego has yet another weapon

    Martellus Bennet, remember the name.


    Oh, and if Felix Jones isn't already expected to breakout, then he should be, lol.

    yea illl 2nd chris henry

    ladell betts i think ould be very dangerous like he was before-whether portis is hurt or not-tho i think he does miss some time.

    malcom kelly-homerism maybe but hes emerging
    kenny britt-my favorite rookie WR
    ray rice-if mcgahee gets hurt early enough or doesnt steal as many carries as he should-rice will be great with a good OL and a QB thats passing more
    derrick ward-im hopeful but hes a good receiver and finally starting. yes graham and williams will steal some carries esp around the goal line-but his TDs seem to often come outside of teh 10 yard line.

    Damn, this has turned into a homer's thread where the question might as well had been "who do you think will break out on the team you root for?"

    Josh Morgan possibly

    Davis from Cleveland possibly

    Desean Jackson

    Eddie Royal

    Jermichael Finley

    Justin Gage perhaps

    Vincent Jackson

    I know he kind of had a breakout year last year, but I think Aaron Rodgers is going to go absolutely bananas this year, and catapult himself into the upper echelon of QBs right behind Brady and Manning.

    I'll just do my top breakout player at each position...

    QB- Aaron Rodgers

    If you don't consider last year a breakout year, then this year will be. I think Rodgers will be an MVP candidate.

    RB- James Davis

    Mark my words, Davis will be starting in Cleveland by Week 6, and he'll make a huge push for Offensive ROY.

    WR- Vincent Jackson, Eddie Royal

    Both players had great seasons last year, but I think both will solidify themselves as go to targets this year.

    TE- Jermichael Finley

    Everyone says Bennett, but Bennett has Witten in front of him. Donald Lee isn't close to being as good as Witten.

    OLine- Anyone on the Bucs front.

    I think they have the most underrated OLine in the league, and with the Bucs wanting to run the ball a lot, they are going to have a chance to really show it.

    DLine- Gaines Adams

    I think he's due to finally show why he was a top 5 pick. The new Bucs regime will find ways to cut him loose.

    LB- Kevin Burnett

    Yes, this is a homer pick, but he's having an amazing preseason, and he has all the talent in the world if he stays healthy.

    DB- Brandon Merriweather

    He'll have the chance to play the Rodney Harrison type in NE, and I expect big things from him this year.

    I know Royal and Jackson were rookies last year, but they've already broken out. So has Jackson.

    I wouldn't call barely getting at 1,000 yards and not a lot of TD's "breaking out." I expect both of them to really break out this season with like 1,200 yards a piece and roughly around 7 TD's at a minimum most likely. Both of them have so much freaking talent.

    Jackson sort of did for him, but I think he'll really break out this season as well possibly get into that 1,300 yard range. He really came on at the end of last season and has looked really nice in pre season.

    And Devin THomas isn't going to do squat much less "break out."
