2012 wasn't entirely a "red-shirt" season for Green Bay Packers OLB Nick Perry, but platooning for six games followed by a season-ending wrist injury does not exactly provide great return on investment for the club who used a first-round pick on the USC product.

The Buffalo Bills lost TE Scott Chandler to a torn ACL in December, and he joked at that time that he'd come back better than Adrian Peterson. All joking aside, the speed with which he's returning from the injury may rival that of the Minnesota Vikings star RB.

Unlike some other teams, the New York Giants simply do not place a big emphasis on the linebacker position, and have been quite successful with this strategy given that they've won two Super Bowls recently. Nevertheless, they do need somebody to start at those positions, and at middle linebacker, they'll have some competition heading into 2013.

The San Diego Chargers were excited about the possibilities with WR Vincent Brown up until he wrecked his ankle in a preseason game last summer. The injury kept Brown out for the entire 2012 campaign, but as the club has gone through their offseason program this spring, he's been an active participant.

The Minnesota Vikings have a lot of exciting things going on: their superhero running back just led the NFL in rushing less than a year after tearing his ACL; they have a new line of jerseys (and a slightly altered logo) that they've debuted this offseason; they unveiled plans for a new stadium with a Skynet-esque "self-cleaning" roof. But beneath the surface, there's a financial issue lingering: namely, star DE Jared Allen's contract with the club is expiring after 2013.

Though their final results from 2012 wouldn't indicate that any part of their play was truly dominant, the Kansas City Chiefs have a pair of quite impactful OLBs in Tamba Hali and Justin Houston, and new DC Bob Sutton is poised to feature both as part of an aggressive pass-rushing scheme this fall.
