Your Breakout Player For 2023

Figured it's time for new post(s) instead of the same regurgitation of topics .

When I say "breakout", I'm referring to a guy who you believe is going to go above and beyond at practices/OTAs/training camp & subsequent games on Sundays. Training camp will be here before you know it.

I'm going with Juwan Johnson on offense and Alontae Taylor on defense.

Who ya got ?

Re: Your Breakout Player For 2023

I'm going to go with breakout player of the season since OTA/TC is so heavily regulated.

Lattimore
Penning

Despite starting the first game poorly I think Penning will clean up and be a solid LT by the end of this years Championship run.

Re: Your Breakout Player For 2023

The assessment I have heard is that he has lead feet and pass rushers just run around him or make him move laterally and trip over himself. He might be able to bench press a lot and run ok in a straight line and dunk a basketball and do back flips but he gets beat around the edge. But I dont know how much that is technique and footwork and how much of that is just his achilles heel as an otherwise great athlete. Some things like use of hands and not getting fooled by pass rushers moves are obviously technique while pure physical measureables may be inherent athleticism but I am not sure where this combination of footwork, lateral speed, and getting beat around the edge falls.

I’ll go Miller on O. Does a bounce back year from Latt count on D?

Easy...Carr. He looked like a Pro-Bowler in some of the years that passed. He's going to look like a Hall of Famer this year.

On D, I'm really feeling Taylor on that other corner!
On O, I like JJ.
