How Soon Will They Make Plays?

[CJD]

Chris Carter -- He'll contribute from week 1 on. He won't play a whole lot of snaps, but on 2nd and long and 3rd down you bet he'll be in there.

PJD -- I don't expect Dawson to see much play unless Vinny or Hawk gets injured, unfortunately. He deserves the playing time, but our team won't give it to him, unless they've drastically changed their strategy from last year.

Greg Little -- He may be active. I could see him spelling Green on occasion and seeing time in 4 or 5 wide sets. But he probably won't be very key to any strategy.

Fisher -- He'll be either the 6th OL on heavy run plays or he will be inactive. Either way, not much impact unless there's an injury.

Kroft -- He'll see regular play as the 2nd TE, but I don't think he'll put up very big numbers this year. He may have a few good games and a few good clutch catches, but our offense doesn't use the TE2 very often as a receiving target.

Alford -- Each game either he or Tate will be inactive. Early in the season, I don't see Alford ever being active. As the season wears on, he may take over Tate's spot and get a few games under his belt.
