Taking cima's lead to get some discussion going in the dog days of summer, what are expectations for some of your favorite players this coming season?

Sammy Watkins: will take the next step and prove he was worthy as the top WR taken in his class. Also, some of the great rookies this last year will slip while Watkins will ascend.

EJ Manuel: 3 games started then benched. I have no faith in him. But I think they'll give him every benefit to start the season.

Mario Williams: career year under Rex Ryan.

Stephon Gilmore: will be recognized as one of the better CB's in the AFC.

How about your guys?
