This is the most interesting thing for me. How much do all of these young players grow over the next year or two? Vrabel said in an interview that it took him 4 years to get to where he wanted and needed to be as a professional player, but Vrabel was a special teamer and linebacker depth in Pittsburgh, whereas many of the Patriots young players got a ton of playing time last season, while others got quite a bit playing in rotation. Vrabel has talked a great deal about how important player development will be in building the team he wants to build, and this coming season will test many of them, including Campbell, Wilson, Henderson, Williams, Chism, Ponder, Taylor, Durden, and Swinson. And they will have a whole new crop of rookies to start working. Camp competition for roster spots should be fascinating.
