Byron is a stud. But it's an uphill battle for DT's to win DROY. It typically goes to guys who record the most sacks or interceptions.

The Hawks also have a lot of bodies on the interior DL. Unless he gets close to double digit sacks. It likely would be difficult for him to get it.

What's the word on Ken Walker? Sounds like they might finally unleash him this season.

Ryan Grubb is a huge improvement over Shane Waldron. It's partly why I'm not completely sold on Chicago this year.

If you have Walker, Metcalf or even JSN, you're in good hands. JSN was completely neglected & not used properly last year. That won't be the case.

JSN still has to deal with Lockett. I personally don't think he takes off until next season, but I agree he should be far more effective this season. I feel like everytime I watched a Hawks game last season he caught the ball behind the line of scrimmage.

I think he'll pass Lockett in targets this year. Lock is slowing down. This is probably his last year.

He is on the last year of his contract so I might take a shot on him in my high stakes keeper league.

The old staff had no clue how to use him.

He’s one of my favorite rookies I will be keeping an eye on this year. If Dallas wasn’t going to go OL I would have loved for the Cowboys to draft Byron Murphy.

The Ravens are going to take a step back this year. Macdonald is a huge loss. They lost several guys in free agency. The offensive line could be an issue as well.

If the Eagles don't win the division, then they should just blow it up. Clean house. :wink:

I assume they will if it’s a disaster. I can’t wait to watch hurts (the godfather) and look forward to drafting him in fantasy

How/why is that even a question?

You know we're betting anyway even if we say we won't

That said, more disciplined betting again this season (worked for the Olympics), so join me in the Gambling thread (or this board) in posting the pregame picks so we're accountable (sort of. LOL).

Good luck this season (only if we're on the same side of the bets!)
