For me Im going with Coleman and Patmon.

Patmon I believe has starter potential and could be a very dangerous player in a Cover 2 scheme once he bulks up and gets some game experience. I can see him challenging for the #3 role next year

Coleman, I dont know if he is a starter, or a high quality starter, but he look like that can do everything asked of him at both DT positions in this scheme. Maybe not a starter, but I think he can develop into an excellent #3 DT backing up both 3 and 1 techniques and get significant rotational snaps.

A guy to watch is Chris Whaley. I think he has the potential to be an explosive 3 Technique

Bishop
Hitchens
Coleman

Patmon was 5-10, 179 with a 4.52 forty (pre-draft). If he gains 16 pounds to get up to 195 like Scandrick (5-10, 195, 4.32 forty) I don't know if he will maintain enough speed.

I'm interested to eventually see the LB Toomer. He has excellent measureables.

Weems has some physical ability, but is now on IR.

Parnell has terrific physical ability and has generally played well when given the opportunity, but will have a mental gaff or two per game.

Randle. If Murray were to ever miss a game or two, I feel confident in Randle's ability to run behind this OL.

I also vote for Randle mainly because of how hard he plays. I think he is the best special teams coverage guy we have which speaks highly of his commitment to play in this league. His willingness to do what it takes to contribute and excel at it speaks volumes. Sometimes the fine line between guys who "can't" play special teams or "won't" play special teams is desire.
