New Poll: What/Who has surprised you most thus far?

Seems like forever since we've had a new poll. Results from the last:

Who else deserves some contract work?
Kedrick Golston       43 votes - 34 %
Clinton Portis       35 votes - 28 %
Brandon Lloyd       26 votes - 20 %
Shawn Springs       20 votes - 16 %
I'm going to get all dangerous on you and make some assumptions about these votes. I think you guys probably split on whether Portis deserves more or less money, likely felt that Golston deserved more, and that Springs and Lloyd both deserved less. If I pegged you wrong, let me have it in the comments.

Question was asked ages ago so I'm not so sure how topical it is now. Kedric Golston is still every bit as good as the 2nd day draft pick we spent on him, and better, but has given ground to Anthony Montgomery. Since I don't really know where you stood individually on Clinton Portis, no point addressing whether hindsight made more sense of your views. Brandon Lloyd continues to underwhelm with 1 catch for 9 yards, despite getting more than ample opportunities to shine in the absence of Moss and Antwaan Randle El last week. The team was so confident in him that they brought in Reche Caldwell and Keenan McCardell.

Dwelling on the bad is defeatist bullshit, especially after a 34-3 win. So here comes the next softball question: Who has pleasently surprised you most thus far in the young season?

Defense - Obviously playing at a much higher level than they were in 2006.
Jason Campbell - Has he been better than you anticipated?
Antwaan Randle El - No comment necessary.
Derrick Frost - Because punters are people too.
Mike Sellers - I'm not surprised, I already crowned his ass.
Offensive Line - In spite of injuries, still playing at a high level.
Other

If you select Defense, Other, or Offensive Line, make sure you enlighten us with the benefit of your specific view(s).
