NFL Nation reporters identified one player per team who stood out during the spring period of organized team activities and mandatory minicamps that ended this month. The selections cover players who were competing for starting positions or depth roles ahead of training camp that begins in late July.
Defensive coordinator Jim Leonhard said in May that Elarms-Orr was meeting all expectations.
Tight end Greg Dulcich became a frequent target in team drills after returning from injured reserve last season. He averaged the second-most yards after catch per reception among tight ends during his time on the field.
He worked as a top personal protector on the punt team and rotated in behind the starting safeties.
Wide receiver Adonai Mitchell showed a firm grasp of the offensive system and displayed vertical speed during spring sessions. His chemistry with the starting quarterback developed quickly after he joined the team last November. The monthlong break before training camp gives teams time to evaluate these performances before roster decisions resume in late July.
