During the offseason, it's so easy to focus on the current year's rookies, especially after a draft where we had five picks in the first three rounds, including the #1-overall. But typically, the biggest jump in productivity for players comes from their rookie year to their second. They're still young, but the challenges of being a rookie are well behind them, and they have a whole season and offseason in the league.
To quote Marv Levy:
I'm not excited about this year's rookies, I'm excited about last year's rookies.
Of our 2008 draft picks (that are still with the team), who are you expecting the most out of?
