Cam was damn accurate in 2015

In 2016 dealt with concussions and then hurt shoulder at the end

And 2017 didnt throw at all during the offseason.  And entering the season with a #1 he only played a few games with/threw to since that guys rookie season in Benjamin, 2 rookies in CMC and Samuel who missed time.

 

Cam has a whole offseason with healthy weapons to practice with for the first time in a while

It was better but Its still not good as of % as Brees, Brady, etc I know he can reach 65% completion rate if he fine tunes his mechanics & technique.

Which so can FBs

FBs are not what they were 10 years ago where they are strictly blockers. They run and pass catch as well.

You really saw this with Tolbert in SD and here.

Again dream scenario for me

Seeing the FB packages

Not going to say match it.  But how many rookies since ODBj have even come close to 1,100 yards their rookie season.

And I think that is very possible for Moore

 

    How many catches do you think DJ is going to need to reach 1,100 yards? 75 or so? That does seem like a lot. Considering he is behind CmC, and Greg. Maybe even Funch as well. So it is going to be tough for him to get the targets needed to reach that amount of yards.

 

    I do expect him to get a poo ton of touches. So his all purpose yards could be up there. The kid very well get close to 1,000 all purpose yards. Or not.

This is an early assesment but a lot of huddler like to pooo on others about their football knowledge so lets do a way to early prediction on which rookie will have the most impact on helping this team win.

It wouldn't be exclusively to stats maybe the improvement of entire unit or play success when that "rookie" is on the field +/-

Which rookie is going to have the most impact? 

Lets see how good Huddlers know about Football.

I'll put my money on Ian Thomas or Rashaan Gaulden

Consider who will get the most snaps. I believe that will be DJ Moore. He will be the #2 or #3 WR more than likely.

 

I believe Jackson has a shot but probably won’t get too much action this year. He is supposed to be a outside CB which means Bradberry, Cockrell and Seymour (who has a 4.3 speed as well) all have more experience at cb so unless an injury occurs or we move him to nickel then he will be our # 4 CB.

 

Ian Thomas has a chance to get the second most snaps of any rookie. Being the #2 TE will give him plenty of snaps. Olsen will get most of the looks but considering his recent health issues and age I could see Thomas getting subbing in for Olsen.

 

I believe Haynes and Gaulden are both players who will have to take time to develop to the NFL level. Haynes doesn’t have the weight and has atleast 4 DE in front of him on the depth chart. Gaulden could be the #2 safety but I see Searchy, Adams and Colin Jones ahead of him.

 

our drafted linebackers Carter and Smith could end up not even making the roster. Carter looks to be a special teams player at best and although Andre Smith does have potential I just don’t see us keeping too many linebackers with the depth at linebacker other positions we have.

 

Norton talked a big game after being drafted but I see him getting cut. We know Poe, Short and Butler are locks to make the team. That comes down to Kyle love vs Norton. Love has a lot of experience and has done well in our system the past few years so unless Norton can really have a good training camp and pre season I don’t see him making the team.

 

We could possibly have 3 draft picks not making the team this year. Some of it has to do with talent while also drafting line backers instead of safeties,offensive linemen or a QB is another reason why we could have so many draft picks cut.

 

I could see a few UDFA making the team. Offensive line, safety and QB are the positions where I could see a UDFA making the team. 

 

Of course injuries are always possible and if a major injury occurs to a starter or top back up then that could open up a spot for one of the rookies or UDFA that wasn’t originally possible.
