You never know how much playing time a rookie is going to get. Our first round draft picks alwasys seem to see a lot of playing time.

But, beyond the first round picks, our rookies usually don't recieve a lot of playing time. (i.e. Stinchcomb, Devery Henderson) Although, I guess Montre Holland, Courtney Watson and Le Charles Bentley might suggest otherwise. None of those guys were first round picks.

I'm feeling pretty confident some of our rookies might be the starters from day one.

Here's some interesting battles I think will be going on before the start of the season.

On defense:

DE - Will Smith vs. Darren Howard

MLB - Courtney Watson vs. Alfred Fincher

DT - Howard Green vs. Jonathan Sullivan

WLB - Derrick Rodgers vs. Colby Bockwoldt

SS - Jay Bellamy vs. Josh Bullocks

On offense:

Wayne Gandy vs. Stinchcomb

That's the battles I see in training camp. There may be some others???
