Give me a new guy who will burst on the scene and a new guy who will bust on the scene.

I'll take Lyerla as my guy who will burst onto the scene since we have no real threat at TE returning from last year outside of maybe Bostick.

My bust is Carl Bradford. In studying him further, I don't think he has enough game to offset his poor measurables and they are poor...terribly short arms, slower 10 yard split than Chris Borland, poor 3 cone drill... guy seems destined for failure at OLB where they insist on playing him.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

Sean Richardson will be starting next to Ha'Sean Clinton-Dix at Safety.

I am in agreement with Lyerla. Huge risk off the field, but having Rodgers feed you the ball and his talent level we can be looking at JerMike's replacement.

I share your concern on Bradford but feel he is getting to the point in the draft where I don't consider anyone a bust.

I don't think much of Richard Rodgers pick either. Perhaps I just don't like the odds of having two decent players named Rodgers on the same team.

Ha Ha is going to be the player who busts on the scene. It takes a lot to be a starting player in the NFL. It is going to take him a couple of years maybe 3 to get to where he is a quality starter.

Bursting onto the scene will be no one. Almost every first year player is sitting on the third string at this time. Most will not see a significant amount of playing time. Rodgers or Lyeria at TE; Adams or Abbrederis at WR; Linsley at C or Clinton -Dix a S are about the only with much of an opportunity at this point.

Out of all of them I figure Davante Adams will have the most opportunity (outside of C-D) to contribute. He role will be a little more tailored to him succeeding than Dix so he will come off looking better.

I will change this if one of the rookies wins the starting role for kick and punt returns.

Hard to identify a bust this early. I don't see Guion amounting to anything, so I'll take him.

As for bursting out, Peppers is too obvious - too high a starting point to be considered bursting out. I'll go with a long shot: Jerel Worthy

Micah Hyde is going to put somebody on the bench. Kid is just too pure of a football player to be sitting on the bench.

I'll predict Boykin will be the one to shit himself. Everyone thinks he's proven himself like an 8 year veteran. Dude is a fringe player with size who got some time due to injuries.

I'm beginning to think Kevin Dorsey could shit himself too. Get on the field, bitch. Harper too. He's stiff like Davon House. They both have size and speed, but neither one of them is particularly coordinated. Maybe they've both his the yoga studio this offseason. Oh and let's not forget Jerel Worthy. Chris Banjo.

As for someone who's gonna emerge, gotta say Lyerla. Datone Jones. Davante Adams. DuJuan Harris, I hope.

I am going to say Hayward is going to burst back on the scene.

I am worried about Clinton-Dix. I can see him being a big disappointment.

Mostly because so many have such high hopes for him. Just because he is a safety and there was a huge hole at safety last year.

I don't think he will supplant Richardson and Hyde. We had a problem with not enough experience back there last year. Going to a rookie would be a step back.
