I watched an interview with Brian Hartline and another with Reggie Bush with "The Phinsiders" and both of them were asked about players to watch for breakout seasons.

Hartline responded emphatically with Julius Pruitt and Roberto Wallace as a close second.  Bush responded with Bess who he believes will go ballistic in this style of offense.

I know that Omar Kelly has been careful not to sleep on Pruitt via several of his reports.  He seems to often get surprised when he sees Pruitt play (in a good way).

All of this sounds pretty good to me.  Of course they have to go out an prove it, but history tells us that often receivers come out of nowhere to have breakout seasons.  It is nice to hear that the perceived #1 concern on our team is getting some love from the guys who would know the best.

Furthermore, Jason Taylor chimed in to support Sean Smith and Reshad Jones in their progress.  Of course he doesn't have the same observation opportunities that active players have, but it is still nice to hear since it is our perceived #2 greatest concern.

Roberto Wallace could emerge as a guy who plays a lot for us a WR. While everyone is talking Bess and Hartline. And Ochocinco and his off the wall comments. Wallace has similar size to Brandon Marshall and could fill into that role sort of. Not replace all the production and match is stats obviously, but just that big physical WR who plays similar to Marshall.

Barry Jackson of the Herald reporting that

Jeff Fuller (Texas A&M) and defensive ends Jarrell Root (Boise State) and Derrick Shelby (Utah) among undrafted rookies that have made an early impression in camp.

^^^ and if this carries as much weight as past early camp reports, expect them to not make the roster or see limited action during real games.

oh none of these guys will play in real games. This is all practice squad and bottom of the roster at best stuff.
