# Rob Rang: Rang names one 2025 draft pick from each NFC team they expect to break out in their second season, attaching specific role and production expectations to several of them (Skattebo as the Giants' bell cow, Campbell starting and starring in Philadelphia, Croskey-Merritt leading Washington's backfield, Burden becoming Caleb Williams' top target, Riley replacing Alontae Taylor, Martin starting for the 49ers by December, and Mills posting five sacks in Seattle). **Claimed:** Aug 13, 2026 **Pundit:** Rob Rang — https://missedtakes.co/pundits/rob-rang **Outlet:** Fox Sports — https://missedtakes.co/outlets/fox-sports **How it reached us:** published in writing **Original:** https://www.foxsports.com/stories/nfl/year-2-breakout-candidates-one-player-from-each-nfc-team-primed-take-leap 9 checkable claims — 7 depth chart calls and 2 player season numbers — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call. It names 16 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. Of the 7 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands above the room on 1 and below it on 6. > But I don't think Campbell is just going to start — I think he's going to star. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Quincy Riley to be 1st on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Quincy Riley, New Orleans Saints - Verdict: not settled yet - **Jihaad Campbell to be 1st on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Jihaad Campbell, Philadelphia Eagles - Verdict: not settled yet - **Cam Skattebo to be 1st on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Cam Skattebo, New York Giants - Verdict: not settled yet - **Luther Burden III to be 1st on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Luther Burden III, Chicago Bears - Verdict: not settled yet - **Jacory Croskey-Merritt to be 1st on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Jacory Croskey-Merritt, Washington Commanders - Verdict: not settled yet - **Josaiah Stewart to be 2nd on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Josaiah Stewart, Los Angeles Rams - Verdict: not settled yet - **Nick Martin to be 1st on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Nick Martin, San Francisco 49ers - Verdict: not settled yet - **Rylie Mills to record 5 sacks** - Kind: Player Season Numbers · About: Rylie Mills, Seattle Seahawks - Verdict: not settled yet - **Josaiah Stewart to record 6 sacks** - Kind: Player Season Numbers · About: Josaiah Stewart, Los Angeles Rams - Verdict: not settled yet ## Who this take is about - Quincy Riley — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/quincy-riley - New Orleans Saints — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/saints - Jihaad Campbell — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/jihaad-campbell - Philadelphia Eagles — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/eagles - Cam Skattebo — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/cam-skattebo - New York Giants — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/giants - Luther Burden III — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/luther-burden-iii - Chicago Bears — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/bears - Jacory Croskey-Merritt — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/jacory-croskey-merritt - Washington Commanders — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/commanders - Josaiah Stewart — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/josaiah-stewart - Los Angeles Rams — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/rams - Nick Martin — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/nick-martin - San Francisco 49ers — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/49ers - Rylie Mills — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/rylie-mills - Seattle Seahawks — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/seahawks ## What others said about the same people - Parker Hurley on Khalid Kareem: Hurley predicts the 49ers will release Khalil Kareem when Nate Hobbs is activated and cut Brandin Cooks when C.J.
