Just curious on others opinions of who they think is a “under the radar” player for this season? Who is going to be that guy who emerges from the depth chart or who 3 or 4 games into the season that teams will have to begin to account for or scheme against because they’re explosive or disruptive on the field. Who’s next?

At WR: Kalani Norris, Avery Boyd

Not sure how "under the radar" they are. Norris has been talked about a lot as balling out in practice reports, but not clear that he's one of the major guys vs. seriously improved.

Boyd of course hasn't built up concrete expectations, but a lot of people had him pegged as an eventual monster. Seems like the talk is, and it's validated by spring game, that he needs to work on his route running, but for a big guy who can run fast on a vert and contest for a catch he's got you covered.

One of our TEs. Deveney had a learning curve from starting football late, Leonard has been bulking up, and Ward was our highest rated TE recruit under Collins but didn’t get much opportunity to practice with the team before the start of last season. I could see any of them breaking out.

To meet both criteria, I don't there is anyone. It is the rare player that a team "has to plan around", so most of those are known and a couple have been mentioned above.
