Ok this is a simple string. We can look back after the end of training camp but pick your players who fit the following categories:
Ascending: Player who improves significantly - example - moves from depth to starter
Descending: Player who declines significantly - example - moves from starter to depth (stays on the roster but goes to the bench)
Shocking: Can be up or down but the player that ascends or descends dramatically and does so unexpectedly
Packing: Your surprise cut from the roster
My selections are:
Ascending: Dawson Knox - yes, I know he is a starter, but I see him moving into a larger role in the 2022 offense and will have increased targets and yards.
Descending: Ryan Bates - I know he stepped up and the Bills matched his offer but it would not shock me to see that he ends up back on the bench
Shocking: Tough call because the roster is deep and pretty well set - However, opposite Miller I see Groot having a breakout year in a very good way.
Packing: This may be easy but Cody Ford has likely seen his last season in a Bills Uni.
