Highlighting the top performer for each position group from Week 3:
QB: Sam Darnold – outplayed Max Browne in all three practices … is his ceiling higher than Browne’s?
RB: Justin Davis – developing into bigger receiving threat out of the backfield
TE: Tyler Petite – making plays downfield, good chemistry with quarterbacks
WR: Deontay Burnett -- quietly productive, reliable, sure-handed, competitive
OL: Zach Banner – signs of improvement in run blocking
DL: Rasheem Green – comfortable in lead role, stands out most days
LB: Uchenna Nwosu – didn’t miss a beat after knee sprain, getting pressure on the QB
CB: Biggie Marshall – doesn’t take plays off, makes outside receivers uncomfortable
S: Marvell Tell – holding his own vs. receivers in man coverage, not just a hitter, competitive, cerebral
Honorable mentions: RB Aca'Cedric Ware (runs hard, breaks tackles, motivated), TE Daniel Imatorbhebhe (handful to deal with, has a lot of big-play potential), WR Josh Imatorbhebhe (QBs like throwing to him, gets separation), WR De'Quan Hampton (becoming more consistent, red zone threat), DT Malik Dorton (taking advantage of increased reps), LB Michael Hutchings (playing with more confidence), LB Quinton Powell (Clancy Pendergast clearly trusts him), CB Isaiah Langley (pesky, active hands, fearless, surprisingly physical)
