After you've seen week 1. You can talk about jameis all you want, but my bet is you were already interested in watching him. Who else stood out as someone unexpected a bit that has your attention.


Tony Jones Jr is one for me.

Kwon continues to amaze me with his contributions on D and how he elevates the whole unit.

Adebo is another. Seems like he has high potential as a starting CB.

Deonte will be my last. He has given big contributions in small doses. He has real potential to give big contributions in bigger doses moving forward. Will be a offensive game changer for us.

Well of course a new starting QB after 15 years is going to be #1.

After that I want to watch Juwan Johnson and Lil J.

Payton Turner. Simply from the reviews he was getting in practice along with the fact we haven't seen him yet. Any word on when he will return?

Chauncey Gardner-Johnson and Cesar Ruiz. I want to see if CGJ takes that next step toward being a star and if Ruiz can live up to his first round billing. He looked really good at center in place of McCoy Sunday.

Juwan Johnson. I had heard he had a good camp so I was already a little intrigued. But I still thought Trautman would be TE1. Now I'm interested to see if Johnson keeps it up and overtakes Trautman

If Kwon stays 100% healthy, we win the SB last season and this season.

Jameis is number 1 because he’s the future of the franchise. Behind him is Payton Turner and Adebo. After week 1 my interest in watching adebo play has raised dramatically

Callaway. After the preseason he had, I think Green Bay identified him as a playmaker & game planned to take him away as much as possible.

Which leads me to the second player I'm interested in seeing & that Michael Thomas when he returns from the surgery on his ankle. Right off the bat, teams will scheme to take him away which will take attention from Callaway. Callaway, Johnson & Harris are really going to benefit from Thomas' return. Their success in the passing game will then force defenses to have to ease up on Thomas. Everyone will eat.

One thing Payton talks about every season is that every new season brings in a different team. Different players in different roles & he has to adjust his schemes/play calling to suit each individuals strengths. He openly admits that sometimes it takes a few regular season games to get that feel for his offensive guys. The greatest example of this was 2011. The offense was up & down somewhat in the first half of the season. Olin Kreutz was a void of suck at center. The team has a bad loss at St. Louis to go to 5-3. Payton pulls Kreutz for Brian de la Puente. The offense goes on a roll & the team wins 8 straight.

The game planning changes from week to week so as we go forward, we'll see Payton's true plans for all his "new" toys on offense along with one old one.

Juwan Johnson. He had 2 incredible catches for TDs.

On defense, Baun had a solid game and will create pass rush when asked to do so.

Davenport will be back if at all possible. This is his contract year so he will make every attempt to play. After he signs his new contract, he will again return to the Injured Reserve All Pro team.
