Every year a usual unknown with zero production breaks out for a huge season. Last year Juwan Johnson turned his numbers from two catches for 70 yards to 54 receptions for 701 yards.

Mac Hippenhammer owns the title of breakout player to watch.
With zero catches in his short career, Mac Hippenhammer made a name for himself at Penn State’s spring game.
