I am going out on a limb with my picks, so don't take my predictions too seriously.
I am going with two players that are not the obvious huge talent (like Portis or Coles), but rather the surprise.
On offense - Mike Sellers
I think defenses are going to forget about him because of all our other big weapons on offense...Coles, Portis, Brunell. So he will be left uncovered on some key pass plays, like key third downs or goaline plays. Plus he has great hands and a knock out blocker. Cooley will likely get some reps because he is a high draft pick. But I don't think he will outplay Sellers.
On Defense - Ohalete :>
After beating out Bowens for the SS position in about the 3rd or 4th week of the regular season....the opposing offenses will try to exploit him as the weak link on our defense. So he will have alot of opportunuties for pick offs and he will have a ton of tackles. But he will capitalize on this great chance and surprise the entire league.
Here is for wishful thinking....
