To help pass the time between now and the start of the 2012 NFL season I am going to be giving a look to two teams a day. I will give you their impact players on offense and defense, a breakout, and the biggest question as they open training camp.

Offense
QB - Jake Locker
RB - Chris Johnson
WR - Nate Washington
WR - Kenny Britt
WR - Kendall Wright (rookie)

Defense
DE - Derrick Morgan
DE - Kamerion Wimbley (acquired in free agency)
CB - Alterraun Verner
S - Jordan Babineaux
S - Michael Griffin

Jake Locker QB

Breakout: Jake Locker - Sure, he may throw an interception or 20, but the second year signal caller will leave no doubt in the Titans' minds that they made the right choice by going with him this season. He will win more games than he losses for the team and make this team a Super Bowl contender by 2013.

Training Camp Question: The Titans are dying to see some consistency our of their skill positions on offense and with a first year starter in Locker they are going to need it. Chris Johnson needs to pick up yards, and not just on one giant play. Wide Receiver Kenny Britt needs to stay out of trouble and tight end Jared Cook needs to always become an option in the red zone.

Last year's record: 9-7

Projected finish: 8-8 (Second in the AFC South)

Offense
QB - Robert Griffin III
RB - Roy Helu
RB - Evan Royster
TE - Fred Davis
WR - Pierre Garcon (acquired in free agency)

Defense
OLB - Ryan Kerrigan
OLB - Brian Orakpo
MLB - London Fletcher
CB - DeAngelo Hall
S - Brandon Merriweather (acquired in free agency)

Robert Griffin III

Breakout: Fred Davis - He was on his way to a breakout season a year ago before he got suspend for marijuana use. With Chris Cooley being released today the former USC standout is the clear number end. He also should become RG3's clear number one option in the red zone. Davis is in prime position to catch 10 touchdowns.

Training Camp Question: Every wants to see how quickly Robert Griffin can take the Redskins from a five win team to a playoff contender. Some think he can do it this year, considering the defense is pretty solid, but only time will tell how good RG3 really is.

Last year's record: 5-11

Projected finish: 6-10 (Fourth in the NFC East)
