Low Key Players I Like

Jason Cameron, TE, Cleveland Browns

   This guy has great chemistry with QB Brandon Wheeden, and this chemistry has been on showcase throughout the preseason. In a year with so many questions at tight end, this guy might emerge in a similar fashion to Brandon Meyers' campaign last year in Oakland.

Daryl Richardson, RB, St. Louis Rams

  I had constantly overlooked this RB until, while watching a preseason game last week, I found myself noticing how well a good passing game can open up the field for any running back. Subsequently, amidst a mock draft, my gaze settled upon Tavon Austin. I began piecing together the potential potency of the reformed Rams passing game. Chris Givens had somewhat of a breakout season last year. Now combine his 4.4 40 speed with Tavon Austin's outrageous 4.34 40 speed and you have 2 players that can quickly force the opposing backfield to take a few preemptive steps back. Also, with the addition of TE Jared Cook, you've got not only another talented receiver but also a good blocker. With him currently ranked 84th in ESPN's Top 300, who else are you gonna take? Vick Ballard? Mark Ingram? Psh...He's got the starting job!

Rueben Randle, WR, New York Giants

  Randle impressed me last year. He wasn't spectacular, but he was a better than solid option for the Giants, who just cannot stay healthy. My prediction is that either Victor Cruz or Hakeem Nicks will be out or perpetually suffering from a nagging heel or knee injury. New York will be in dire need of a #2 wideout. Randle is their guy. My only qualm with this guy is his team. The Giants are infamously hit or miss, but if you're drafting this guy its probably not as an every-week-starter but as a flex option or bye-week fill-in. At WR47, I'll be taking him in my draft.

Chris Givens, WR, St. Louis Rams

  You might have seen this one coming, but he's worth mentioning considering his draft position. I can't remember the last time I (or anyone for that matter) said "I like the Rams this year." Probably not since their elite Kurt Warner, Marshall Faulk, Isaac Bruce days. Be that as it may, I like the Rams this year. Their defense is solid and will do their part getting the offense back on the field.  The offense that now has some great young talent with scary speed. Tavon Austin will likely be considered the #1 wideout, which will in turn bring him the attention of opposing teams' best defensive back. This leaves the door open for Chris Givens, who late last season began showing the world his skill and his chemistry with Bradford. #105 in ESPN's rankings, #136 on NFL.com.
