Before beginning, this thread is all about which new players brought in over the offseason truly excite you the most, rather than the ones you think will ultimately be the best players. From highest to lowest, rank our recruited talent in terms of pure excitement factor. For me it is:
Sharenberg - Think he will be an absolute gem. He reminds me more of Pavlich than Goddard, exquisite kick, elite reading of the play (from all reports) and strong overhead. He can also play anywhere on the ground. I think we've got ourselves a keeper here, wouldn't be surprised if he turns out to be the best player in the draft.
Marsh - Who didn't bar up watching this guys highlight reel? A hail mary sure, but if we can get this guy consistently playing the type of footy he is capable of, he'll be draft steal of the decade.
Freeman -Just love his pace. Also love the fact he was picked the same number as Dangerfield and has some similar attributes. Do we dare dream he could become Dangerfield 2.0?
Karnezis - There's just something about this guy. Seems to have plenty of x-factor and is a great size. Could well turn out to be a dud, but i think he's got huge upside and might well surprise a few people.
Adams - Pushed down the list due to striking me as more a blue-collar type player. I think he's a near certainty to play a long and successful career, just doesn't have the same standout attributes to get me hot under the collar.
White - Could go either way in my opinion. He's got some great attributes, and fully firing and playing consistently could be a great addition to the team. I guess due to his age he's just a little less exciting than others because the phrase 'he could be anything' doesn't really apply.
Langdon - Down the list more due to my ignorance of him than any specific reason. Looked good in highlights vid, apart from that have no real comments insightful or otherwise.
Armstrong - Not even slightly excited about this character. However he will have my full support and hope he succeeds.
