Sorry I had to lump all the linemen together, but something had to give with 12 rookies.

Is there an option for ALL? Lol, I mean there are so many rookies that are going to be critical to this teams success in the upcoming year at many positions. But I'll probably say Gronkowski his inline blocking plus pass catching helps two situations at once, so I'll have my eye on him.

Spikes. I wonder if it's true the "speed" factor that pushed him back in the draft is negated by the "vision" they speak of...

I voted Spikes. I want to see some high energy and some thumping out of that position this year.

Close second is McCourty, because I feel like he can impact a number of different areas. I'd like to see him do something special on ST (no pun intended).

The biggest deficiency on the team last year was the ability to rush the passer. That makes Cunningham the most important rookie.

I picked Spikes. Based on camp reports, the guy could be a force on the inside. Want to see if he lives up to the hype and I am a defense guy. Also want to see McCourty who seems to be getting a lot of positive reviews lately.

Aaron Hernandez on offense and Jermaine Cunningham on defense as I feel those two will be the most crucial for us if we want to be a Super Bowl contender.

From what I hear McCourty is having a solid camp so far and that he looks like he belongs with the ones. Butler did not do well yesterday, so i wonder if BB would think of starting mccourty over butler.
