Trey DePriest spent most of his freshman season on special teams, but could challenge to start in 2012.

Staff, who is your guess to start at the Sam spot? Seems like one of NJ, CJM or TD would be an option to get them all on the field. NJ seems like a lock for Mike and with TD having the size at Will it could be CJM at Sam while in base and then have him back on the inside when we go to NIckel or Dime.

Not staff, but this is what I've been saying happens next season in base. CJM is fast enough to play Will and gets our 3 best LBs on the field together.

Scary talent. Got to love the 3-4 and having that talent pool of LBs to choose from.
