Last year in training camp, it was Andrew Norwell. Norwell showed early flashes, like below man handling Kony Ealy in one on one drills.

Most of the media saw it as Ealy coming along too slowly. Turns out it was just Norwell being.. well,.. Norwell.

Who is your pick for surprise player of 2015? A guy not predicted to make the team but steps in and makes a major contribution.

if byrd turns out to be a punt or kick returning phenom it could really shake things up at several roster positions.

I am really trying to temper my enthusiasm over that kid until the pads are on and he takes a hit. Huge potential there, just worry a bit about his frame at this level.

I'll go with Kurt Coleman. He's expected to make the roster, but many have already penciled in Harper as the starter. Also I think Big Frank will have a breakout year and help us forget Hardy, but I don't think that would be a huge surprise to many. We all know he has the talent, just has to stay on the field.

I say Funchess. I know he is a second round guy so maybe doesn't count as "surprise", but from a national perception point of view it seems a lot of people thought he would be a slow tight end with bad hands. If he can have a season similar to Kelvin's rookie season then I'd say that would be a pleasant surprise.

I really, really think people are going to enjoy Artis-Payne. Maybe not right off of the bat, but I could see him breaking out in December..

 

With that being said though I really like Fozzy too. So it's tough for me to pick between the two for the backup spot

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Leaning towards just ordering this tonight, but now I have no idea on size. Has anyone bought a bunch of jerseys in the last few years and can convey how the Game vs Limited vs Reebok versions all fit? These are both Mediums... The white one here is a Reebok one from 2010, and was when they had the "+2 length" on the tag and it was the version with the stitched numbers instead of iron on... the blue one is from 2022 and is the F.U.S.E Limited version also with stitched stuff, not the "game jersey" with the ironed on numbers/letters that they have the T-Mac jerseys in. The old one fits me fine, the blue one was always a tad snug on me, particularly in the shoulders I'm leaning going with a Large based on the CMC, but for all I know, that is made with a tighter cut due to the higher "limited" level and the "game" ones they have for T-Mac are cut more like a T-Shirt and thus will fit more like the old white one I have here, not sure. (and yes, I already tried going to a sporting goods store here to hopefully try on a Lions jersey to see, but they don't have any right now)

      I think there's a ton of potential in that WR room. But they really are unproven right now. Hopefully they live up to the hype.

      Some...concerning UNC / Belichick news

      By Basbear · Posted

      My unbelievable pile is touching the moon now-a-days. Bill is ultra control freak if there was ever one in the NFL, he's the guy. He stayed off SM and hate hate hated the media..........(wow bill what did you do in 2024??!?!?!).  So this guy, 100% control freak, just gave away all his SM to a 24 year old?? He doesn't understand SM at all... This is the same level as 8 time SB winner coming to coach UNC, after all this NIL BS that drove out his other control freak coaching friends.  This time line is insane.
