Don’t forget laird for bench player of the year!LARNEL COLEMAN FOR OFFENSIVE ROOKIE OF THE YEAR
I expect Hunt to start destroying people now he's where he belongs. Can't wait.My 5:
AVG
Brandon Jones
Robert Hunt
Austin Jackson
Preston Williams
If that's an award and he makes the team, he's got a real shot.Don’t forget laird for bench player of the year!
Thought he had an underrated year at tackle but it seems like he has all pro potential at guardI expect Hunt to start destroying people now he's where he belongs. Can't wait.
To me breakout means for the 1st time a young player had the light turn on for them, and showed the NFL what type of talent they really are, here are my 5...
Noah Igbinoghene
Too much potential here, not only could there be improvement, don't be surprised if he shows special abilities.
Austin Jakson
Was starting to look good early before he got injured, but I expect this year he makes huge strides.
Andrew Van Ginkle
From the moment we drafted him, I said I loved his non-stop motor, and was my favorite pick from that draft, yet even I was shocked how relentless he is, this kid is going to be fun for many years.
Robert Hunt
Started off slow, but was slowly looking better at tackle, but if/when they move this beast inside...He's an all-pro within 2 years.
Brandon Jones
There is talent here, but this kid is also smart, and makes few mistakes, the moment the light goes on for him (Obviously, I'm expecting it this coming year), this is going to be yet another DB headache for teams for years to come.
For a rookie playing out of position he did a great job.Thought he had an underrated year at tackle but it seems like he has all pro potential at guard
Jackson, Kindley, Hunt
The Oline will never get mentioned in a list like this, but this is where we need to see some breakouts.
Interesting call on Ledbetter.1) Austin Jackson: He played well early and faltered towards the end of the season. Donating his bone marrow to help save his sisters life, may have had some unintentional circumstances, regarding his slack off in play at seasons end. Hopefully with a full offseason Jackson can take the next step in his development?
2) Brandon Jones: I think he played very well for a rookie. His football IQ was on full display. It allowed him to play a significant role in the secondary, during his first year. With a full offseason, I think Brandon Jones will truly shine in year two of Brian Flores defense.
3) Both Jerome Baker and Andrew Van Ginkle showed they can play a huge part as blitzers in this defense. They can get after the QB. I think more is expected this year .
4) Byron Jones: Had a pedestrian 1st year under Flores. I think with a full offseason he too will come to shine. With another year of experience, he could finally provide the lock down coverage Miami was hoping for.
5) Jonathan Ledbetter: This is pure speculation on my part. But Miami has kept him around on the Injured Reserve list for 2 years. That is very rare, if you ask me. They must see something in this kid to do something like that. Ledbetter started game one of the 2019 season before leaving with injury. He's a true 3/4 DE in terms of size. If healthy Ledbetter could surprise by regaining his form, that won him a starting job. If so he's one of my sleepers on the Miami Dolphins to breakout and become what Flores thought he could be.
Its very rare to see a team keep a player, let alone an UDFA on its Injured Reserve List; for 2 seasons, like Miami has done with Ledbetter. Perhaps I'm reading into something that's not, or is there something more? Miami must like him a lot to do that.Interesting call on Ledbetter.
Iggy is the one I expect to see the most improvement from. He could challenge to start in the slot.
That's a valid point.Its very rare to see a team keep a player, let alone an UDFA on its Injured Reserve List; for 2 seasons, like Miami has done with Ledbetter. Perhaps I'm reading into something that's not, or is there something more? Miami must like him a lot to do that.
