Who are you keeping an eye on?
Which rookies, not on this team, are you keeping an eye on this Pre-Season and the rest of this season? Here are a few of mine:
Aaron Donald: I wanted this guy on the Chiefs but he was obviously drafted way too high for us to have a shot at him. He's the fastest DT in the league with a 4.6 40 yard dash and was a 1-gap penetrating phenom in college. He's my early prediction for DROY barring any health issues. Can he carry his game over to the pros? Seeing as he was drafted by the Rams, it's going to be fun to watch that DL with Quinn, Brockers, Long, and Donald wrecking havoc up front. Jordan Matthews: He was one of my favorite receivers in the draft. I'm curious to see how he develops as the season goes on. He should get plenty of opportunities to shine in the Kelly offense as one of the top 3 WRs in Philly. Khalil Mack: He was another one of my favorite defensive prospects in the draft. He has all of the tools to become a great player in this league. Pissed me off when the Raiders drafted him (same thing with Ellis, Carr, and Dowling). Jadeveon Clowney: I think that the Texans will be one of the most exciting front 7's to watch in the NFL if Clowney comes anywhere close to living up to his physical potential as a rookie. The biggest thing that he has going for him is that he will be playing with JJ Watt next to him. This pairing has the potential to look like the 49ers duo of Justin Smith and Aldon Smith on steroids. Jimmy Ward: He was my favorite safety prospect in this draft and I really wish we would have drafted him, especially now that Commings is pretty much done. Ward really reminded me of Earl Thomas and I believe he has the potential to be just as good. Fantastic instincts, great range, great aggressive safety mentality, as fluid as they come with his movements, has the ability to drop down and shadow the slot receiver, and pretty much would have been the perfect compliment to Eric Berry. The only thing that Ward doesn't have going for him is his size. Who are you guys keeping an eye out for this year from other teams? Last edited by OldSchool; 08-06-2014 at 01:11 PM.. |

Eric Ebron is the only guy I REALLY wanted, so I'll be watching him.

To be honest, I don't really care all that much about anybody who isn't here. I'll pay attention of course, but I won't be rooting for anybody who isn't in red.

[QUOTE=Halfcan;10797492]What can I say, I'm a sucker for underdog rags to riches stories, every team/fanbase deserves a lil limelight... except jokeland and dinveer.

Thinking about players we didn't take in the draft is just dwelling on the passed.

IF they are not a member of the Chiefs I don't give a shit.
