What i'm waiting for are the goal line carries for Carter. He got a rush for a TD this past year.

For sure, we definitely got a lot more athletic this Offseason on Defense. Even if you don't like Shemar he is ten times more athletic than Sam was
the last couple of years. Knight is way more athletic than Pratt, same with Barrett Carter who should be a ST's demon for us right off the bat at least.

I thought I remembered Barrett Carter lining up as a RB for Clemson last year, we will see lol

He was great at spying the QB at Clemson, this is what we need to do when playing the running QB's we have to play now a days.

Nobody laugh, Myles Murphy. The guy just can't be a 1 1/2 sack a season player is he ??

I think our defense will have several breakout players.

Jenkins
Hill
Turner
Knight

My number one is Ossai

I think Slayton will be our new DJ Reader

As no one has mentioned him yet I’ll go Jordan Battle.

Out of everyone he seems the one best placed to take that step forward to become an undisputed starter. He’s had enough of a taste of the NFL that he knows what it’s about, he’s not returning from injury and he has the opportunity with no one ahead of him in the depth chart. He won a National Championship in College and was a captain.

In a D lacking an identity he has an opportunity to make himself a leader of that unit.

Gotta go with an unmentioned, so I say CTB.

If he gets 4 sacks in 2025, you can say he deed break out.

I hope he plays better, but for a tremendous athlete, he just does not play fast in my humble opinion. I hope he proves me wrong.

The forgotten man in the Trey, Shemar saga. Third year is when D-Line guys break out, if at all. 

In addition to Murphy, I will also take Iosivas. More difficult with Chase, Tee and Gisecki on the roster. But I could see a 50/600/8 from Yoshi.

I'll go with the dark horse and say Stewart.

That could be later in the year at this rate but we'll see.

If he can come in and physically dominate and take on bodies that will make the rest of the defense better.

I like a pick along the dline. Jenkins was another good pick I saw earlier.

Knight

Question:

Can a rookie be a breakout player?

[sandwedge]

I'm going to try to make 2 years in a row for "Breakout Player", going with Slayton.

So who is your breakout player?

Chase was a breakout player in year 1.

He broke out again last year.

I second this

Dax Hill looked good before his injury. I think Hill shows something more this year.

[Housh]

I think Yoshi adds the deep ball this year and keeps Burton at bay.

Could also see CTB make a comeback
