Just Want A Title Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 (edited) Training camp is coming up soon and I was thinking about what are some surprises that could come out of training camp: 1. Mike Ford makes a big jump--He has solid size but playing as a rookie out of SE Missouri St went about like you would expect. He was solid in a limited role but exposed later on. He might make more noise than some people expect 2. Two and three TE sets become a staple of our offense: This is pretty easy to project. I suspect Logan Thomas could play a bigger role than is generally expected. With TJ Hockenson, Jesse James and Logan Thomas we have a potentially dominant group of TEs that could cause problems for defenses aligned to defending WR-heavy offenses. 3. Marvin Jones gets traded: He didn't mesh so well with the coaching staff last year and he isn't getting any younger. It will probably be a player-for-player trade. If one of the younger WRs starts to shine I could see this happening. 4. Teez Tabor doesn't flames out quickly: I think once he starts playing against NFL starters he is going to be exposed again. My projection: he is released half-way through camp. 5. Romeo Okwara becomes more than a "try-hard" player: He had a solid year but most of his sacks were effort/coverage sacks. I think having a guy like Trey Flowers will help him develop into something more. Also, having a full off-season to focus on learning Patricia's defense and just being a better DE rather than fighting for a roster spot should make a big difference in his development. 6. Beau Benschawel is makes the roster rather than going on the practice squad: Wisconsin lineman do really well in the NFL. I think be becomes a back-up at both guard positions as a rookie and develops into a starter in Year 2. Thoughts?
