Sleeper units around the league.

The Redskins D - Their D is one of the most talented in the league and has top of the line potential. If Albert Haynesworth shows up then they're a SB contender.

The Browns D - Another D supposedly suffering from a giant, angry, sullen, defensively skilled baby. If Rodgers plays up then they could be really good. If he's decent then they're decent at best. Their offense has middle of the pack upside, but should perform better than expected. Cleveland fans might actually cheer for most of the season.

Colts D - It's always slept on because they have Manning, but they do not lack athletes or speed. Jerry Hughes should thrive in that D because of what they ask of the DEs. It's perfect for his game (speed).

Texans D - The DL is extremely talented with Williams, Smith, and Okoye. They got my favorite corner in last years draft, Kareem Jackson. Ryans and Cushing are one of the better MLB/OLB combos in the league. Pollard is your prototypical SS. Any kind of NT play at all would give them a pretty intimidating D. Unfortunately, Frank Okam, Earl Mitchell, and Shaun Cody do not inspire confidence.

Giants O - Manning was really, really good last year. He's probably the most underrated starting QB in the league nowadays. He's entering his prime now. Battles with Romo should be awesome and ridiculous.

The Lions D - The Lions O has alot of potential too, but it's the D that I like. Suh, dick move or not, has all the signs of a franchise DL. Expect a breakout year from Cliff Avril and/or Hill the DT.

The Bills O - Everyone laughs at this team, but they'll make the difference in the AFC East at the end of the year. Lee Evans is the (wait for it) most underrated playmaking WR in the league. I say underrated alot. Spiller also should be huuuuuge in Gailey's offense. They also have two really talented power backs to play with. There'll be alot of running and deep passes to Evans this year.

Arizona's D - It too is loaded. Love the DL...the secondary has some of the best size/speed players in the league...Adrian Wilson is scary and Rhodes' athleticism compliments his game perfectly...Rodgers-Cromartie is a major breakout candidate...the linebackers are decent and should play up because of the DL.

Bears' O - Jay Cutler is perfect for the Mike Martz offense. He's big, athletic, strong armed, loves to go deep, and most of all he knows how to take a hit and brush it off. The two starting WRs (Knox and Hester) are perfect for Martz' offense. Those two are probably in the top 5 fastest players in the league. Olsen the TE is a breakout candidate. The D shouldn't be bad if Urlacher and Harris are healthy...Peppers will want to play up to his contract for at least this year.

Raiders O - Their D might be a better pick, but I like the offense. Campbell sucks so they have middle of the pack upside, but there's really alot to like about the other skill guys. If you're a Cotchery fan then you'll like Louis Murphy.

49ers O - They have Gore and Davis...two top of the line offensive weapons...Crabtree, a guy with that potential...there's no young OL in the league I like more than theres...Iuptai and Rachal have elite G potential while Staley is a stalwart at one T spot and Davis has elite potential as the other....they finally have RB depth behind Gore...They'll probably fall short because of QB play.

Overrated:

Packers D - This team in general is overrated. The Vikings are way better. The D is talented in places, old in most, and really looked better than they were last year.
