Davis is a b/u. Looks like a very solid b/u, but still a b/u. And one with a long injury history. Only started two games last year and by the end of the second was all ****ed up.
Kelce is also coming off a serious injury and this will basically be his rookie year.
Ford is a b/u and rotational player that's horrible vs. the run. At best he's an excellent one dimensional pass rusher and that won't be until next year (unless Hali gets hurt.)
Fisher spent his rookie season either being injured or failing horribly.
DAT is our big shot. If we have him at P/KR for the year I think he's LIKELY to finish a top 10 returner. Not could be, I think it's likely. Notice he doesn't have an injury history. Rookies can and often are productive as returners. It's not a long shot...

You're writing these guys off way too early.
Davis is a b/u... yes, but so was Priest Holmes, Larry Johnson, Jamaal Charles. They all became extremely productive starters after a couple years.
Kelce is basically in his rookie year - exactly why there's still hope.
You are selling Ford wildly short.
Fisher spent his rookie season banged and failing horribly. Hopefully we will see this year if those two things are related.
I think there's still a ton of promise in these young players. Ford, Gaines, Fulton, DAT - all are yet to play a single regular season snap. let's not start talking about how one dimensional and miserable they are.
