2014 Community Projections: DE Jamal Palmer

The less-heralded but longer-tenured member of our DE tandem is now up, looking to build on a great 2013.

When we were doing offensive projections, I got into a great rhythm where I'd write the post the night before and schedule it to go up by 8 AM, giving early birds the opportunity to post before they really got going in their day.  For whatever reason, that rhythm fell apart with the defense, and I've yet to get it back.  I'm sorry.

Our projectee today is the other presumed starter at DE, Jamal Palmer.  Palmer, who is entering his third year as a contributor on defense, is a junior, and though he doesn't get the press of his partner Shawn Oakman, he is no less important.  Here's what I need:

I'm telling you guys-- Palmer had a sneaky awesome 2013.

I'll say no more.  Please keep all discussion to the Discussion Fanpost and "rec" that post if you haven't already.  Happy projecting!
