...and, of course, what looks to be a pretty tight competition for roster spots at wide receiver. Will Dyson's presence threaten McCants's chances of making the roster, or is this the year McCants proves he deserves to be on the field? Is Antonio Brown really going to make waves at wide receiver like Coach Gibbs says he could, or is he strictly a return guy? Can Taylor Jacobs finally step up and become the starting-caliber receiver his teammates have always said he should be? Does Jacobs have enough talent and moxie to hold off what figures to be a strong push by savvy veteran David Patten for a starting gig?
Then there's the questions at safety. Beyond just the Sean Taylor issue, there's the injury recoveries of both Matt Bowen and Andre Lott to monitor and evaluate; the additions of newcomers Pierson Prioleau and Tony Dixon and their potential impact on the starting lineup; as well as the return of Ryan Clark, who established himself as a starting-caliber safety last season and wants to prove he's good enough to stay there.
That's really just the tip of the iceberg. That's what makes training camp so much fun from a spectator's perspective-- there's so much to absorb and digest, and it seems like everything's moving at a hundred miles an hour.
