I figured every answer would be Geno.....after all the hype from the fans how big of a year Smith will have in his break out year?
Free IK! Also, my dark-horse is Erin Henderson. I hope he's in the running for comeback player of the year.
I'm not sure if it's a surprise since he was a second rounder but I think Devin Smith is going to have a good year. On D I expect Pryor to make huge strides as well and become a real impact player. He was a first rounder so maybe that's not a good pick either.
I'm going with Devin Smith, too. I think he's going to be a one dimensional type player, but a guy who takes the top off a defense. He's going to have the sort of Desean Jackson (light) type games with a stat line of like 2 or 3 receptions but for 75 yards and a TD. Obviously he's not going to do that every game and he's going to disappear from time to time, but I think he could have 5 or 6 tds and around 600- 700 yards. He's also going to keep defenses honest.
Not sure he'll be an every down player, but I think IK will make his share of plays. Just one of those players that makes plays.
I don't think they give that award to players that sucked and are "coming back" from multiple DUI arrests
I read the same article and it was Henderson who said he wanted to be CBPotY (no chance at all), the reason he got dumped by the Vikings was DUI arrests, not injuries. You don't come back from being a drunk and win Comeback awards in the NFL, and if he did start playing well it would be the first time he has ever done so in this league so it would be a break out not a come back. I doubt he's even on the team in September
We will see, but I am rooting for him cause the guy has a major knack for the football. And Henderson, I think is the best linebacker for a potential 4-3 lineup at times, if he's back to form, he will make the team absolutely. BTW did a major edit because he didn't suffer major injuries in the NFL, but in college. I stand corrected there. http://turnonthejets.com/2015/06/toj-film-room-new-york-jets-ilb-erin-henderson/ I like the way the dude plays.
Agree and its comeback worthy. Because he reacted to DUI arrests by admitting he had a substance abuse problem and took the time to change it. It's more than just bc he got arrested. If we're gonna scrutinize these guys for getting into this kind of trouble, don't you think it's fair that we commend them for correcting an issue if it's addiction rather than being an idiot?
Erin Henderson has never been an outstanding player in the NFL. Maybe you're thinking of his brother EJ.
