10 NFL players set to make huge leaps in 2017

Jaguars linebacker Myles Jack is one of the NFL players set to take a big leap in 2017

Jamison Crowder, wide receiver, Washington Redskins

Crowder, chosen by the Redskins in the fourth round in 2015, carved out quite a niche last season. Playing with a talented receiving corps that included former receivers DeSean Jackson and Pierre Garcon, Crowder was still targeted 99 times by Kirk Cousins.

While Garcon and Jackson saw more targets, Crowder’s results in the end zone were far better. He scored seven touchdowns, whereas Jackson and Garcon hauled in seven combined.

With both of the above-mentioned receivers out of Crowder’s way, look for his numbers to climb even further this season. While Terrelle Pryor will certainly garner his fair share of targets, Crowder is set to explode.

The former Duke Blue Devil has averaged an impressive 71.65 percent catch rate since working with Cousins in 2015. He is a young receiver on track to make huge strides in 2017.
