I'll go with John "serious as hell" Beck.

He had a great year for a #2 but I am of the of the opinion that he can do much much better.

I don't get why everyone thinks highly of Beck. I don't believe he is going to get that much paying time let alone have a good season.

Well, he went from a warm body on the practice squad to a middle of the road NFL receiver. 44 catches. I suppose relatively speaking that's breaking out. He's proven he's worthy of a roster spot for sure. I do agree with what Saden that he's got the tools to do more.

I'm sticking with my Trent Williams pick.

Why can't it be a rookie? Because I'd put my money on Roy Helu Jr., he's the perfect kind of back for Shanny's system, and I think he'll split carries with Torain, with maybe Torain being used heavily in late game run down the clock situations.

But since this poll won't allow rookies, I'll say Beck. Unless he's one of those guys who is a leader but doesn't have the talent to back it up, he'll definitely show he's better than that horrible time he spent starting for Miami back in the day.

I didn't count rookies because that's for another poll later this summer, but more importantly because I'm looking for that player who has NFL experience but has had kind of a pedestrian career, but then suddenly explodes. Kind of what happened to AA last year

And I'll go with Terence Austin, who I didn't entirely agree with drafting but from what I saw of him think he can be a complete WR

If you do a breakout rookie poll, will there be a final "breakout player from Skins roster" poll that includes rooks and vets to determine which player stands the best chance of breaking out this season?

@Mechanix: Heyyy, I think that in all honesty we could see him in late game situations between 6-10 times this year. Does that mean we'll win all those games? Not necessarily, I'm sure we'll see our fair share of games that go down to the wire. But I do think he could be great in a Brandon Jacobs type role, provided he stays healthy.

I voted other. I think that Darrel Young has the potential to come up big. I know Sellers is the starting Fullback, but I believe that the Shanahans are going to go to the youth movement early and this guy stands to make a name for himself both in the running game and the passing game.

I think Beck has a good chance in this system with Kyle as his OC. If he proves himself to be a starter, that would be considered a breakout year for him. I've always thought Kelly could be a huge factor if he could stay healthy and was used correctly. I just haven't seen that happen yet. Hopefully it will this year but I'm voting for Beck.

Evan Royster or Leonard Hankerson.

I'm telling you all this Hankerson could be the next Ochiocinco/Houshmanzadeh Receiver; lower pick higher production big physical and deceptively fast receiver with great hands.

I think everybody is highly optimistic of Hankerson. The poll is about non-rookies though.

I think Trent Williams will break out to be even better next year.

Keiland Williams. I think there's a 40-60 chance against that he's the lead back this year. And if he's the lead back, I expect 1,100 yards and 7 TDs. That would qualify as a breakout for a second year back.

40-60%? How'd you come up with that?

On a side note, it speaks volumes about the state of the Redskins offensively if we're considering 1100 yards and 7TDs "breakout."

When Torain was healthy he was our best weapon out of the backfield. Averaging 4.5 yards a carry. I don't see Williams passing him for any reason.

I'm excited to see what Helu can bring to the table.

Well, I wanted to split between Williams and Helu as starting RB next year since I think they finish 1-2 in carries in some order, but wanted to leave the last 20% open for some combination of Torain/Royster/anyone out there on the FA market.

Do you think Williams/Helu will finish 1-2 in carries because Torain gets hurt? If not, why do you see them supplanting him on the depth chart?
