Title: Team to watch out for in Season 19 Post by: Paul-London on January 08, 2008, 05:06:55 AM They have the 9th ranked offense, 10th ranked defense and currently hold the top overall pick and also another 1st rounder which will either be the 3rd or 4th overall pick.
They are the Orlando Thunder. Orlando who dealt QB Tony Romo to Barcelona earlier this season received a 1st round pick in return, that pick looks like it will be the top overall pick so a great move by Orlando. Young HB Dee Brown has struggled but another training camp should get this young gun going next year for a potentially huge break out year. They have a young QB, former 1st round pick who has developed well and two young starting WR's who can make big plays. Defensively they have a good d-line but very slow LB's bar one and their secondary is one of the slowest in the league with the worst safeties to start this year. However there is light at the end of the tunnel, with their two 1st round picks they should get two impact starters in the draft and will probably look for a starting CB or S or could indeed trade the pick for an already proven starter for the secondary. The AFC East seems to be weaker this year, New York are rebuilding, Ohio and Birmingham are solid teams but Orlando with a lot of young talent could be a team to watch out for next year if they have a great draft and active offseason. |
