Projecting Every NFL Team's Starting Lineup 🔮

Rookie WRs Who Will Outplay Their Draft Value 📈
It obviously can't happen for all these team's but let's take a glance at whose got the best shot.
Washington Redskins
Rex Grossman and Co. make their first trip away from the nation's capital when they face the Cowboys in Jerryland.
It is never easy winning in Dallas, but Washington couldn't ask for a better time to face their bitter rival on the road.
Miles Austin is almost assuredly going to be on the sidelines, Dez Bryant will be a game-time decision, while Felix Jones should be limited if he plays at all.
Oh yeah, and Tony Romo has broken ribs.
If the Redskins can impose their will early with ultra-aggressive play on defense, they could sneak out of Texas with a huge win.
The Eagles and Giants play each other in Week 3, so at best they'll only be a game up in NFC East, but starting 2-0 will give them the upper hand.
Detroit Lions and Green Bay Packers
Both teams are on the road in divisional games (Detroit in Minnesota, Green Bay in Chicago) and have a fantastic opportunity to create some space in the NFC North.
With a win against the Vikings and Packers loss, the Lions are sitting pretty.
The same goes for the Pack if they handle the Bears and Detroit's divisional road problems continue.
Houston Texans
The normally competitive AFC South just isn't the same without Peyton Manning and an ineffective Chris Johnson.
Winning in the Superdome is no easy task, but if Matt Schaub and the revamped defense can lead Houston over New Orleans, they could be two games up on the other three teams in the division.
