Using snap counts provided by Pro Football Focus, the following is an a sortment of Cleveland Indians Blank Jersey draftees who have lived up to the billing, outplayed expectations and failed to get on the field:The war daddies, (852 snaps), (804), (802), (801)Nobody in the league has played more snaps than Bitonio, Cleveland's mauling guard who ranks behind only at his position, per PFF. Had center stayed healthy alongside Bitonio and , it's po sible the could have sent three O-linemen to the . ... Martin after anchoring Josh Tomlin Jersey the league's youngest and fiercest front five in Dallas. Like Bitonio, he hasn't mi sed a snap all year.Right tackle deserves credit for playing from wire to wire. He's struggled both as a run-blocker and pa s-protector, though, with only and allowing more quarterback hits on the year at their position. ... The have leaned on Britt from Day 1 to take over for the departed and at right tackle. Calling Britt a "Wally Pipp story," coach said last month: he's taken the responsibility to heart, he's fit in beautifully with our guys and he's played really good football."Pa s-catching gold, (776) Jr., (520), (499)Of this year's potentially historic crop of rookie wideouts, nobody's played more snaps than Watkins. The playmaker has been streaky, though, following back-to-back 100-yard outbursts in Weeks 7 and 8 with 27, 32, 35 and 11 yards over his past four starts.No first-year receiver has been better of late than Beckham, averaging 7.6 catches and 118.6 yards per outing since Week 9. against the two Sundays ago might have put him over the top for Offensive Rookie of the Year -- an astounding feat for someone who mi sed the first month of the season.The runners, (352), (249)The running back cla s hasn't been especially potent, but gems exist. I'm impre sed with Hill, who capably stepped into a lead role with the between Weeks 9 and 11 to Lonnie Chisenhall Jersey average 120 yards per start. Advertised as a hammer-dropping inside runner, Hill has been much more with his ability to hit the edge and gain extra yardage with his quick cuts. His workload has been nearly equal to 's 407 snaps.Mason didn't earn his first start until Week 9, but he's fit in well with the St. Louis offense since. His 164 total yards and two touchdowns against the were the product of his sneaky breakaway speed and dangerous pa s-catching ability out of the backfield. Play-caller Brian Schottenheimer deserves credit for feeding Mason the ball and upping his snaps over the past month-plus.Promise on the inside, (817), (387)Mosley has been on our radar since August as a potential Defensive Rookie of the Year candidate at the inside linebacker spot. Leading the and all fellow rookies with 71 tackles, the former Alabama star trails only Bitonio in snaps played among draftees. Seeing more work as a pa s rusher in recent weeks, Mosley is arguably this season's most complete first-year defender.Borland, though, has dazzled of late, piling up an outrageous 54 of his 69 tackles since Week 9. He ranks second among all rookies in that category behind Mosley despite 430 fewer snaps than the linebacker.Mixed bag at cornerback, (795), (291)How many of you had sixth-rounder penciled in as a top-three cover man? over the how active Gaines was in the secondary, and seeing far more time than or . Listed as , Gaines plays inside and out and has emerged as the team's fourth-highest-ranked defender, per PFF.Not the case with Gilbert, who lost his starting job early in Nick Wittgren Jersey the year to fellow rookie and remains on the outside looking in for serious playing time. Averaging just 13 snaps per tilt over his past three starts, Gilbert has yet to live up to his first-round pedigree.Game-plan crusher, (530)Seeing his snaps grow weekly, Donald has cemented himself as a run-stopping force for the . His six sacks are tied for fourth among all defensive tackles and more than first-rounders , and Mosley combined. He's got plenty of competition for Defensive Rookie of the Year, but Donald looks like a long-term fixture ready to wreak havoc in the NFC West.Workload on the rise?, (18)With flatlining over the past three weeks, the appear ready to anoint Johnny Football.Coach and general manager Ray Farmer must find a way to evaluate their first-round pick, who came off the bench to play a season-high 13 snaps against the . Farmer called that performance after telling reporters last month that the organization's goal is to help Manziel succeed "for an extended period of time," adding: and we're going to be ready when he does get that opportunity."We expect that chance to come in Cleveland.The latest Around The NFL Podcast and debates whether deserves the starting job.
