Dark horse: Chris Baker and Bobby Hart. People are sleeping on those signings, but I could easily see both starting and performing well. Especially Baker. I also see Mixon going for over 1000 yards on 4.5 YPC or so, with the improvements to the line.
Dud: I'll lay down a hot take and say AJ Green. Ultimately, I do think he'll bounce back, but he had a bad year (by his standards) in 2017, and he turns 30 in July. It's within reason to say that his slide could start soon. Even then, I don't think he'd be a complete dud, but it wouldn't totally shock me if his best days are behind him.

The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
