Tiger picked christian louboutin replica as NFL cheap red bottoms breakout star

Long before the Eagles' LeSean McCoy was in the conversation as the best running back in the NFL, he was a rookie waiting for his chance to earn a bigger role in the team's offense.As a second year player, McCoy exploded as the team's starting running back and ran for over 1,000 yards. He's consistently been one the NFL's top rushers ever since.Each year, these types of opportunities present themselves to talented young players. Some capitalize on the opportunity and eventually become household names.The Q identified five talented players with the same type of opportunity in front of them to become this year's breakout stars:Andre Ellington, RB Arizona CardinalsDuring Bruce Arians' first season as the Cardinals head coach, he relied on veteran RB Rashard Mendenhall, because the veteran back already knew the offensive system.Mendenhall started 15 games for the Cardinals last season, but Ellington saw his workload grow as the season wore on. The rookie back finished the season with 652 rushing yards on 115 carries. Ellington's 5.5 yards per carry was the best average among players with over 100 carries. He was also a vital component in passing game with 39 receptions.FANTASY: Cards' Ellington will be big for fantasy owners in 2014With Mendenhall's abrupt retirement, Ellington's speed and explosion will be featured in the Cardinals' offense. And the team showed confidence in the second year back by not adding much to the backfield during the offseason. Only Jonathan Dwyer was signed as a free agent to provide depth.Ellington will also benefit from a louboutin replica revamped offensive line. Jared Veldheer was signed during free agency to man left tackle. Bradley Sowell will slide to the right side. And Jonathan Cooper, last year's first round pick, will take over at left guard after missing all of last season with a fractured left tibia.With ample opportunity and improved blocking, Ellington has a chance to develop into a true feature back.Jamie Collins, LB New England PatriotsCollins's breakout game came in the playoffs when he had six tackles, a sack and an interception against the Indianapolis Colts.After starting eight games last season, Collins now has the opportunity to replace Brandon Spikes, who signed with the Buffalo Bills as a free agent, as a full time starter.PATRIOTS: 2014 scheduleCollins will be a massive upgrade over Spikes from an athletic perspective. Spikes is a two down run defender, but he is a liability in coverage due to his lack of quickness. Collins, however, was Top 5 in four of the six events at the 2013 NFL combine.Collins' ability to drop into coverage was evident late in the season. He deflected six passes in the team's final six games. He also brings added versatility as an edge rusher in certain sub packages.The versatility the Patriots now have within their linebacker corps with Collins, Jarod Mayo and Dont'a Hightower will provide even more flexibility in Bill Belichick's defense.Byron Maxwell, CB Seattle SeahawksSeattle Seahawks cornerback Byron Maxwell red bottom shoes cheap (41) defends Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Floyd (15) at CenturyLink Field. (Steven Bisig USA TODAY Sports)The Seahawks' famed "Legion of Boom" secondary will look a little different this fall. Neither Richard Sherman's bookend, Brandon Browner, nor nickel corner Walter Thurmond were re signed.Browner's loss paves the way for Maxwell to become Sherman's new running mate at right cornerback. Maxwell isn't as big or as physical as Browner, but he's a better overall athlete with enough size (6 1, 207) to provide a presence at the line of scrimmage. Maxwell is also a smart defender in zone coverage.MORE: Even as Seahawks visit White House, they're ready to returnThe fourth year cornerback became a starter during the final five games of the regular season after Browner was suspended, and Maxwell proved capable of playing at a high level throughout the playoffs, including the Super Bowl.While Sherman and safeties Earl Thomas and Kam Chancellor will demand most of the attention, Maxwell's name will be mentioned far more often this season as an integral part of the best unit in professional football.Travis Kelce, TE Kansas City ChiefsThe Chiefs lacked explosive play makers in their passing offense last year. Yet, the team decided not to add a high draft pick or experienced alternative at wide receiver or tight end.What the Chiefs will gain this season is a healthy Kelce. The tight end was placed on injured reserve last season after only one game, because he required microfracture knee surgery.
