IMPACT ROOKIES
Patrick Queen, linebacker: Expect Queen to become one of the team’s linebackers at some point in 2020. Her athleticism will allow her to compete with the running backs and tight ends of the blanket. And although he’s undersized, his instinct and speed – coupled with the ability of Calais Campbell and Derek Wolfe’s off-season additions to block blockers on the line – will allow Queen to run free and also be a factor against the race.
JK Dobbins, ball carrier: The former Ohio star will join the rotation with Mark Ingram. However, Dobbins is a more explosive runner than Ingram and can deliver big wins, especially with the double threat Lamar Jackson creating big defense holes. Dobbins will be especially valuable if Ingram is injured or slows down during his 30 year season.
Malik Harrison, linebacker: He could very well start at the other linebacker position opposite Queen. Harrison, a true race scorer and physical presence at the point of attack, is a player style different from Queen.
