Well here it goes...these are all the player who, IMO, have the potential to have a great year or even a pro bowl year. Give your pick and if you can, add a little analysis on why you think this player will have a breakout year. Personally, I can't help but pick Taylor Mays...he really has the potential to be greatness, and I was really hoping the Niners would draft him. On an athletic scale, few DB's compare to him in the NFL; however, we all saw how raw he is when it comes to the X' and O's / technique of the NFL game. If he can get some good coaching, there is no reason why this kid can't be a Pro Bowler consistently. I predict he will finish with around 80 tackles, 3 sacks, 3 ints, maybe not enough for a Pro Bowl selection, but would be a huge improvement from last year.

Bowman is an outstanding player.

When we drafted Mays and Bowman, I liked it because we were going for "boom" or "bust" potential. I figured, one of them would bust and the other one would boom. NaVorro Bowman went BOOM. He is truly an outstanding player and is pulling some of the spotlight off of Willis.
