Which player has the most to prove in 2015?

turtle · Jun 1, 2015

I voted JJ. 1st round pick and we've not seen a significant sample size of his playing in two years. He needs to prove he can stay on the field and that his play is worth the first round pick imo.

As to Shamarko, here's a small article on him and Troy. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap30...ko-thomas-hoping-to-fill-in-well-for-polamalu

And they're getting paid like it.

Ben can't be cut any slack because he has two rings to his name. No matter what these other fellas do, if Ben has an off year then we're sunk. He must be on top of his game if we are to compete for the title.

Thinking within the box, then Cortez Allen, hands down, has the most to prove. From showing signs of promise to being a total joke, he has to show his true colors. He has to prove he didn't pull a Haynseworth.

Jarvis, to me, has to prove he's "worthy" of a 1st round pick. He's shown improvement, and I think he'll be a good contributor this year.

Shark needs to prove he can stay healthy. That's about it because the dude has all the athletic ability in the world.

Mitchell needs to prove he isn't a free agent flop. I think learning a new system, working with Polamalu, and battling an injury all hindered his ability. I think he'll improve.

Shazier needs to prove the game isn't too big for him. He'll be a pro-bowler this year, so that should be easy for him to disprove.

So this is what I have:

A guy who needs to prove he can stay healthy.
A guy who needs to prove his isn't a 1st round bust.
A guy who needs to prove he isn't a FA flop.
A guy who needs to prove that the NFL isn't too big for him.
A guy who needs to prove that he isn't a Haynesworth chump.
A guy who needs to prove he's capable of carrying a team to the championship.

Proving that you are the best is a heavy responsibility to shoulder and gets my vote for the most to prove. I don't mean to hate on Ben or discredit his past accomplishments, which are great, but 2015 has to be his most complete year to date.

You our have some good points, but Ben did show us he got what it takes, the others haven't shown us yet. Agree with your assessments.
