I'm not sure if any of the rookies qualify as a 'breakout' candidate.. I'm thinking more along the lines of someone who has been on the roster but takes a significant step as a 'breakout' player..

Offensively, I'd lean towards Hankerson or Robinson at WR. Hankerson has never had a 'normal' offseason between the lockout and the rehab, this year he's had full OTA's and hopefully a full camp. If he solves his gator arms and ups his work ethic, he's got the talent to shine. Robinson needs to show consistency in catching the ball but he could be a really valuable weapon taking the top off of defenses.

Defensively, I'm looking for Jenkins to fulfill the pre-injury promise of his rookie camp. He was sounding like a star in the making at DE and entering camp as the starter, hopefully he takes a leap. Also, if Riley develops a little better in coverage and getting home on the blitz, he could elevate to near Pro-Bowl status next to Fletcher. He plays fast and is almost always around the ball.
