How do you think players out with injury last year will do?

We had a few players with pretty significant injuries last year that saw minimal playing time. Seems that almost all of them are playing positions where we have openings or potential starting jobs available
Players who missed time last year
Jaylon Denson
Justin Garrett
Josh Holsey
Jonathan Jones
Jeffrey Whitaker
Keymiya Harrell

Swain will probably have to sit out this whole year too. Horrible horrible injury. It's a shame

I'm very interested to see if Key Harrell can get over the injury bug and get on the field...I remember reading that he was the DE Rocker wanted most back that year when he was being recruited. I've heard he has a pretty good pass rush (which we desperately need with Lawson being out)

We missed Garrett a lot last year. I'm hoping he is who we thought he was. We'll def need Whitaker to do well. I would really like to see us field a defense that compares to something seen back in the early to mid 2000s.

Only ones I see contributing major snaps for us and being a factor is Holsey and Jones because our secondary is paper thin with unproven talent.
Whitaker hasn't played a meaningful down in forever. Swain will play against teams that run the ball. Key Harrell has yet to contribute so why would he now? And I'll refrain from jinxing Justin A-Day Garrett

I think Denson should be on your list

Good Topic....
Denson - Solid blocker good position guy we will be better with him healthy
Garrett - Will make some big time plays. Blitzing off the edge causing fumbles big hits I'm excited about him.
Holsey - Whether he starts or plays behind Moncrief gives us solid depth and play making ability at the Safety position.
Jones - Should be a starter alongside Mincy. Played well early in his career I think he'll be just as good as Mincy
Whiaker - Will give us depth a play a lot of minutes but he will be overshadowed by Adams Bradley Wright Blackson ect..
Harrell - No idea

Holsey is who I am the most interested in seeing. That being said, I hope every one of them is a beast.

I expect Garrett, Holsey, & Jones to be a big part of the defense.
The others will be role players at best.

It's going to be tough for players to break in on offense. I agree with the others, the DBs will likely get thrown into the mix quick. I think Holsey is a known quantity.
