Former NFL player and scout Bucky Brooks has shared his insights on 11 offensive players who are primed for breakout seasons in 2024. As a football expert known for his accurate predictions, Brooks has highlighted these players who have yet to receive All-Pro or Pro Bowl honors, but possess the potential to make a significant impact in the coming campaign.

One of the players on Brooks' radar is the Carolina Panthers' young quarterback, who struggled in his rookie season but could bounce back under new head coach Dave Canales. With a revamped offensive system and improved supporting cast, the former Heisman Trophy winner has the opportunity to showcase his talent once again.

The Miami Dolphins' running back, who burst onto the scene as a rookie with explosive plays, unfortunately had his breakout season cut short due to knee issues. However, with an expanded role and the creativity of offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel, he could become a game-changing X-factor in one of the league's most dynamic offenses.

Meanwhile, the Seattle Seahawks' wide receiver, who served as the third option in 2023, could enjoy a breakout campaign in the team's high-flying attack under new offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb. With defenses focused on stopping star receivers DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett, this talented pass-catcher could thrive and become a crucial part of Seattle's offensive success.

In Buffalo, following the departure of Stefon Diggs, a young wide receiver could step up as the team's lead pass-catcher. Having already shown flashes of his potential as a big-play threat, this player could surpass the 1,000-yard mark and become a key contributor in Joe Brady's offensive scheme.

The Green Bay Packers may have found their next top wide receiver in a young talent with reliable hands and impressive route-running skills. As the team lacks a true WR1, this second-year player could emerge as a consistent chain-mover and develop a strong connection with quarterback Jordan Love.

Over in Chicago, the Bears' hopes for a successful season in Caleb Williams' debut hinge on the performance of their rugged right tackle, who showcased his skills as a rookie. With more attention on the team's offense this year, this young lineman has the potential to play at a Pro Bowl level and anchor the offensive line.

The Cleveland Browns boast an extra-large edge blocker, who made a significant impact when filling in for injuries last season. Depending on how he progresses alongside other key offensive linemen recovering from injury, this player could claim a starting spot and become an intriguing talent to watch.

In Tennessee, a young offensive lineman with exceptional instincts and awareness could flourish under new head coach Brian Callahan's pass-centric offense. With superb blocking skills and the guidance of the well-respected offensive line coach Bill Callahan, this second-year player is expected to thrive and perform at a high level.

A talented interior blocker in Atlanta is poised to shine in a revamped offense under new coordinator Zac Robinson. With his athleticism and ability to move defenders, this player will play a critical role in creating space for the running game and providing ample protection for the Falcons' quarterback.

Lastly, the New York Jets' young center is expected to benefit from the return of quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who missed most of the 2023 season due to injury. With Rodgers' experience and leadership, this former second-rounder has the potential to settle into his role and showcase his dominance on the offensive line.

These 11 players highlighted by Bucky Brooks offer a glimpse into the future of the NFL, with their potential to make significant impacts and elevate their performances in the 2024 season. As the football world eagerly awaits the start of the campaign, all eyes will be on these rising stars as they look to make their mark in the league.
