My money is on Brandon Jones, but we have a lot of players looking to "grab the ring" this August.
So who you got?

These guys are supposed to be making noise... being rookies and all the spotlight is on them more.
They guys above are vets we haven't talked about much this summer (save for Balmer). It'd be interesting if any of them emerged into playmakers... tho we should hope B-Jones is worth a s**t for the money we are paying him.

It's hard to pick one, so I'll go with Balmer and Jones. Jones especially if Crabtree's holdout extends deep into TC and he loses a lot of possible playing time.

I think Balmer could turn out to be a beast this season fa sho![ Edited by P-52ENFORCER on Jul 30, 2009 at 14:24:40 ]

Tough call but I wouldn't say Balmer b/c he's not in a position where he's going to dominate or stand out for fans. Jones could be the man though with his talent and with Crabtree's holdout. My big time sleeper could be Brooks if/when Lawson or Haralson either fail or are subbed out and he's allowed to rush the passer (assuming he makes the team, of course). And again, that would be during the regular season. VD might be my pick for offense during the regular season too.
