This right here.
I expect him to be significantly more productive this season.
I'm gonna break every record they've got. I'm tellin' you right now. I don't know how I'm gonna do it, but it's goin' to get done.

Vigil showed well, when he played. I would certainly expect his progression to be noteworthy.
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations

Since the good ones are already taken, I go with Cody Core.

Darqueze Dennard.
He's healthy now, he's smart, and he's seen a few seasons at NFL speed. If Adam Jones is suspended and Dre Kirkpatrick walks, the No Fly Zone will start -- and excel.

I sure hope your enthusiasm is warranted. The Defense will need him to play really well.

Call it wishful/hopeful thinking, but I'll go with Shawn Williams. He has the talent, and did well as a reserve just seemed a little out of sorts in his first experience as a full time starter. Hopeful that he steps up this year and really opens some eyes at the back-end of the secondary.

That's who I was going to mention. He showed some flashes in his small amount of snaps last year. I'd love to see him step up and look like a legit #2WR.

I would like to see Tyler Eifert get back to healthy and normal this year. He helps this team win when he's on the field.
Who Dey!

No doubt about it. Eifert was the reason this team went from "good" to looking epic in 2015 prior to Dalton's injury.
If he could stay healthy, he'd be a top 5 TE for sure.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.

I'm gonna say Ogbuehi. Just because.
I came here to say that I hoped it was Cedric....we really need him to. I would go with hoping it was Bodine, but I'm afraid that ship has sailed.

It was never even a ship. It was a raft tied together with old shoe laces.

I can get down with this. Dennard has had a weird first couple of seasons in the NFL. Sat out a year, injured, etc.
Im not ready to give up on him yet.

Isn't him being "normal" him being injured?
I no longer count on Eiffert to be a productive member of this team. He just gets injured and sits out too often.

Same here. The biggest ability in the NFL is availability.

I think Boyd and/or Core could have big years.
Young WR's generally make a big jump from Year 1 to Year 2.

Ugh, I could see Hill having a great season again for his contract year. Take the Doug Martin approach. Great rookie season, two crap seasons, great contract year, get paid in FA, go back to being crap. It's why I am hesitant on Kirkpatrick in FA, too. People who wait until their contract year to put it together always make me hesitate. Was it coincidence, or was it the lure of getting paid? How will they react after getting paid again?
Like Reinard Wilson.

P J Dawson is no longer on the Bengals roster.
They cut him last year.
