All safe choices, and I agree they will have big seasons with the exception of Dieter. We all know June doesnt rotate receivers, and it will take a lot for him to jump over Thompson, Ace, Guinyard, or Holman on the outside.

Ace didn't know the offense last year, I'm betting dieter already does. I think he will get plenty of PT.

Gieter will not be on the field much next year. not enough speed
Re: 5 Breakout Players for 2012: DFW Star
Then why did we sign him? I'm sure he will play.
Re: 5 Breakout Players for 2012: DFW Star
As a general rule I wouldn't bet on a Freshman Wideout. Not only in this offense in general, but with this lineup in specific. Given what we have on the outside. If he gets significant playing time, I think it will be because of injury.
I like Jay Scott in the final spot.

Sure would be a shot-in-the-arm if everyone shared your enthusiasm - is there something you could prescribe for the "woe is me" crowd?

How about a dose of "pull your head out"

Sick of the outspoken drumbeat Eeyores on here. There's a ton to get excited about with this team.

Dieter didn't get a chance to participate in spring do to injury. Mental reps can only take you so far. Over/under on 10 catches for Dieter next year and I'm taking the under.
Re: 5 Breakout Players for 2012: DFW Star
I bet 10000000 yen he has 2 100 yard games.

Dieter, IMHO, is a faster version of Bobby Chase with a significantly better nose for the ball. He could potentially be the "safety net" we haven't had since Emmanuel Sanders. I could see him either not getting much PT because he's young or going for 1,000+ if he develops enough report with the QBs.
A controversial pick as breakout player in 2012, especially as he's coming back from a knee injury. But if he gets on the field, he has the potential to wear down and frustrate smaller CUSA DBs.

Re: 5 Breakout Players for 2012: DFW Star
He played against zero talent small DBs in highschool, and is coming off an injury that kept him out this spring. I look forward to seeing him in 2013.
