You guys probably know the deal by now -- after a hiatus, we're bringing the Player Spotlight threads back to the Shark Pool. For those who are new around here, the Player Spotlights are one of the main features on the site during the preseason. They're in-depth looks at key players, including pros and cons, and our staff projections. For years, we also included the best commentary from the Shark Pool. A few years ago, activity in the Pool died down and commentary fell off, but we have confidence in a resurgence.
So here's the deal. Discuss your thoughts about the player in question. We'll pick the best comments from the bunch and use them (and give you credit) in the published articles.

Royce Freeman, RB, Denver
After showing signs of disatisfaction with C.J. Anderson for the past few years, the Broncos finally allowed him to walk in free agency. Many expected that Devontae Booker would be the next man up, but Denver took Royce Freeman early in round three. What will this backfield look like by year's end? Does Freeman have the skills to threaten for the majority of the touches in year one? Is there any chance of Booker rebounding, though he's largely been a dissapointment thus far? If Freeman does win the primary job, will the offense be good enough to create the game scripts he needs to thrive?
Let's discuss!
