I think what's unique about this group is that we'll actually have a couple guys coming back after making some big plays. Lemon's been a stalwart, but Sales was largely potential outside of a five-game stretch at the end of '10. All the young guys like West, Kobena, Fleming, Foster, etc. have potential but hadn't produced a thing coming into this year (west had 16 catches but averaged just 9 ypc last year).
 
For next year we have West coming off a breakthrough campaign (45+ catches, ~600 yds) and Kobena and Clark at least having gotten a bit of run and actually making some plays -- Kobena just 5 catches, but 20 yards a pop and 2 TDs with a chance to hopefully build on that the next four weeks. Clark with 10 catches, 2 TDs. That's actually decent production given that it would be really difficult for either of those two to break into the top 3 in the rotation.
 
Add to that the potential for Funderburke to step in at a high level and it's a lot different, IMO, from projecting breakthroughs from guys who've never done a thing. That at least sets a pretty decent bar for the guys like the two frosh from this year and Foster, Flemming, etc.
