With the conclusion of Spring Practice, we take a look at five players that could have a breakout season for the UCLA Football team in 2016.

It happens every year. There are one or two or ten players that step up and prove their worth for a team. Sometimes there are clues that a player is about to breakout and sometimes a player just comes out of nowhere.

With the conclusion of Spring Practice, the Bruins hang up their cleats until August. The summer will be a time for individual development which will help in preparing these players for next season.

There will be a lot of growing from each player, but some of them might grow a little quicker than others. In the last four weeks there were several Bruins that stood out and could have big seasons in 2016.

With that, we take a look at five Bruins that could have breakout seasons in 2016. Some of them will surprise you and others we saw coming. Either way, the UCLA Football team has a roster full of athletes and with the nurturing of the coaching staff, will be able to do big things next season.
