His best player is probably QB Darius Wilson who doubles as a RB and is a talented guy in the backfield. He's joined by RB Darrel Lea who should see plenty of carries after averaging more than six yards per carry last season. Anthony Washington may also see carries for an offense that looks like it could be dominated by the rushing game. On defense, play in the trenches should be decent with Corners needing to emerge. Improvement is possible.
