Agree with @CMcAvoy73 Grzelcyk broke out last year as a legit top-4 D, but if you're saying he takes it a step further and becomes a two-way 40-pt D-man then I get it.
Also agree that Coleman is a little late for a breakout. Kotkaniemi won't be a breakout under Ducharme. Not sure about Bastian either since the emergence of more and more talented wingers on NJ might not give him as much room - probably tops out as a bottom-6 player.
I love the Formenton, Balcers, Ferraro, and Mittelstadt picks (especially if Granato sticks around). All of those guys could be 20-goal, 50-point, or Top-4 D players next year (kind of see Formenton being like Hagelin at his prime maybe better)

I agree with Bastian. Too many wingers in NJ and Bastian plays like a bottom 6 winger. He's physical and can sometimes score.
You’re a couple years late on grzelcyk. Also what’s Coleman going to do. He’ll be 30 before next season. Seems like a weird time to “break out.”
I agree that he already broke out as a solid player but I think he will take a step up next year. And Coleman is a second line player playing on the 4th line. If he goes to Detroit he can put up 50 points
