2. Junior Urso

Stats: 19/24 passes completed, 4/6 duels won

Junior Urso as a central winger is king of effective. He's hard nosed and technically good enough to advance the ball. He presses well, gets into goal dangerous areas and provides needed grit. I think we say all of those positives on display once again against New England.

On the flip side, however, Urso lacks the true attacking quality of a proper winger. He's not a crosser, he has limited vision and for all of his goal scoring instincts, he's not really a goal scorer, at least by forwards standards.
