Good to see ya back Jared. Butler is a guy who might start on the outside and switch inside at times.

Agreed with Edelman, but he could still be impressive – even in spot duty.

If Welker wasnt alredy back….and was out until say…wk 7….the answer would be Julian Edelman. But with Wes, and Torry, Price and Tate… lot of guys at WR. But at corner, you have 3 solid guys, and Darius Butler is the breakout player in the group. I would like to see Chung be the guy, but I think there is some guys ahead of him on the depth chart. Butler, was my favorite draft pick lst year in April, aqnd during the season…he showed Asante Samuel-like recovery speed in some instances, and corners in NE are tough for a rook’. So my breakout guy would have been Edelman, but im going with Darius Butler, starting opposite Bodden, or playing slot guys in the nickel back spot.

I’m going with Laurence Maroney. Contract year is going to bring some hard-nosed running.

Not sure if you can still call him a breakout player, but I’m going with Sebastian Vollmer. Going to have a big year.

The competition for kickoff-returner will be through the roof: McCourty, Tate, Slater (If he makes the team)

Spikes and McKenzie should bring some nastiness.

All these young guys have got to make the step up for this team to succeed this season- I’ll looking forward to the impact of Spikes and Tyrone- lots of impacts at the line of scrimmage… Go get’em kids- It be really good to see a tough New England Defense again-

I have to agree…but would love to see Chung and Brace take more of a role this year. Tate is very talented but needs to stay on the field…if he does stay healthy I expect him to make a huge impact on ST and the offense.
