Name your breakout player for 2017

I am hoping to see Kevin Dillman figure out a way to get on the field and make and impact. He has too much physical ability to be sitting on the sidelines for another season.

I agree but with the injuries it is going to be a tough road back.

Is he still not healthy?  I was assuming he is back to full health. What was his injury?

It was an ankle or foot injury, I believe.

Pearson looks like he could bring something to the team, looking back at his tapes as well as his performance during the spring game, I really liked the arm on him! Will he be starting in a game this season? Hard to tell, but if he does eventually play in a game during the upcoming season, then I believe he can make a name for himself! All in all, if I were to name an overall "Breakout Player", I'd choose English! Can't wait to see him start! 

Also, on the side note, I feel like McClain and Wilson will breakout in their own ways this season in order to show more of their potential for the NFL

I think it's not unreasonable to think one of those dudes hits 800 (Smiley) yards, someone hits 600 (Bussey), and the other hits 400-600 (Guyton).

That's my hot taek.

How'd everyone do?

I selected Smiley as my breakout. Started off slow but picked up. I'd say I got a B- after a curve.

Ran out of +1's but several of you were pretty spot on.

All purpose or rushing?  

Either way, if he does that paired with Wilson's production and the passing game...We'll at minimum be an 8 win team. 

 

2017:
• Has 132 carries for 665 yards and six touchdowns to go with 17 catches for 135 yards and two receiving touchdowns in 13 appearances

I may get laughed out of here but I just have a feeling Shanbour is poised for a strong year.

Great season of holding for Trevor Moore's kicks, & who could forget his brief stint during the Iowa game!

...probably not what you were looking for at the time you made the prediction though.

Mike Lawrence.

@Marty got that third eye!

I had a hot taek about 1,800 yards receiving for top 3 players...

...They hit over 2,000. Bless you 8lb 6oz baby football Jesus. What a season.

He let me down when he overthrew  on the fake but I’ve forgiven him.

That was the game-changing play for me.    Shanbour hits on that, and Chumley takes it either to the end zone, or at least inside the 10.   Score, & we're right back in the game (10-7) with some momentum.
