YoloinOhio Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 (edited) http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000908310/article/afc-unsung-heroes-william-jackson-jalen-richard-and-more Quote The 2017 NFL season brought us a number of star-level campaigns. We'll see many of those players take the field at Sunday's Pro Bowl in Orlando, Florida. However, no football team is made up of 53 star players everyone in the viewing audience knows about. Most teams -- or individual units -- are boosted by the efforts of unsung heroes and unknown contributors. Here, we'll look at one such player from every team in the AFC. Whether they be young breakout candidates who flashed or under-the-radar contributors who stepped up and evolved into starters, these players deserve more attention than we gave them this season.

Success Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Another great draft pick. He played so well for a rookie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted January 25, 2018 Author Share Posted January 25, 2018 Is Dawkins a “franchise LT?” Cover 1 says yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALF Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 If Glenn can prove to be healthy I would rather see if he or Dawkins can play RT. If both can only excel at LT then a trade could be made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEpsYtown Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 I like Dawkins a lot. I really like his athleticism and I think he got a lot better as the year went on. I think it makes sense to try to use Cordy as a piece of a trade up with Indy or NYG, but I'm fine with keeping him and letting Dawkins play the right side. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darby, Brown, Karlos and Kiko looked "franchise" at their positions after one year too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Dawkins emergence allowed some flexibility with Glenn. Personally, I hope that the Bills keep him and move him to RT. They could have a good line (especially with Daboll’s power scheme). I’d give Groy a shot at RG as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to see that too, but not sure if Glenn’s foot/ankle situation is chronic or what’s going on there. If he’s not going to be ready for TC I would be wary. Yet, they need an answer at RT and Mills isn’t it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BmarvB Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 I can see Dawkins taking over for Glenn at LT. He was pretty solid for a rookie. Look for Beane to add Glenn to a package dealn on draft day to move up and hopefully get us our QB of the future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Now Moment Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 I'd rather see Dawkins stay at LT even if Glenn comes back. He has better athleticism and doesn't have foot problems. He will be a great LT for the future IMO if he keeps his head on straight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
