For example - who do you start at middle linebacker?
Beal and Bostic are suppose to be interchange able but more athletic than Spikes.
the Jenkins kid is suppose to be light than Beal and Bostic - but runs much faster than them and hits just as hard when he gets there
We just lost all three starting LBers - and that is not a concern.
Two DBs got drafted - and that is not a concern.

Can I ask a question? Ok.. I understand that the starters get more playing time than the rest... but is their playing time considerably more than their backups?It depends.
At some positions there are virtually co-starters and who is on the field first often depends on how the coaches plan to attack that particular opponent, who was sharper in practice or warm ups, or who is healthier.
At other positions, we may be depth shy, or the backups may not have developed enough physically or technically for the coaches to play them any more than they have to.
One of the fallacies with the preseason predictions are that a lot of the prognosticators simply look at a list of how many "starters" were lost without taking into account who their likely replacements are, their importance in the schemes that the teams run, etc.
