Bauman...I don't really know.

Russel...I think he'll be out of the league after training camp

Jacobs had a terrible rookie campaign and I'll be surprised if he makes the team this year.

I have to say jdlea, I really diagree on both Bett's and Jacob's, in his rookie year Bett's was breaking tackles every time he touched the ball, in fact he was drawing comparison's to S. Davis for his ability to step out of tackles without slowing down, he's been stuck under SS for 2 year's and had some unfortuanate injuries which have slowed him, he will be a very good back, unfortuantly he now has Portis in front of him, so eventually it will be for someone else, What was so terrible about Jacob's rookie year? You do know he had a freak injury? And aware of how much that can set a rookie back? Especially in SS's chaotic world of offense, and I will take all bet's that taylor makes the team this year, the kid is highly motivated and is one of the hardest worker's you will find, as well as he is all buisness, he is about succeeding in the NFL and doing whatever it takes to get there, I would be surprised if he wasen't the #2 reciever before the first 4 games are over, he's going to leave Gardner in the dust.
