D-next year??? - alex_9 - 01-01-2015
Any idea what we will look like???
Re: D-next year??? - stupac2 - 01-01-2015
Judging from our post-2012 results it'll be top 10 in most statistical categories.

My swag at a starting 11 and 2-deep on defense:
LCB: T. Alexander - A. Murphy
RCB: W. Lyons - A. Holder
NB: R.Harris - B. Simmons
SS: Z. Hoffpauir - D. LLoyd
FS:Â K. Whitfield - B. Edwards
LOLB: K. Anderson - J. Alfieri
LILB: N. Davis - K. Palma
RILB: B. Martinez - B. Okereke
ROLB: P. Kamambayi - M. Tyler
LDE: H. Phillips - L. Kaumatule
 NT: A. Shittu - W. Annan
RDE: S. Thomas - N. Lohn
Stanford moves the DL and OLB around a lot, so this is more about who will play than where specifically the OLB and DL will play.

A few add ons.
Palma has received a lot more playing time than Davis - I would think he has the current edge there.
Harris has been a starting CB for the second half of the season, I would think that is likely to continue.
Lyons seems to have indicated he's leaving - but it's not entirely clear. If he comes back, Hulk seems to think he'll be at safety.
It's also possible that Hoffpaiur will be playing minor league baseball next fall - but nobody knows.
Kaumatule started getting quite a bit of time late - wonder if he has the inside line to a starting position. Also will be interesting to see how they balance the various positions along the Dline - Shittu and Phillips played some NT this year, though certainly Phillips seems small for the position.

Watkins doesn't make the two-deep anywhere across the D-line?
Re: D-next year??? - BostonCard - 01-01-2015
The Davis projection may have been due to his play and time in the foster farms bowl. Plus, in the post-game interview Shaw singled him out as someone who had been having a great set of practices leading up to the bowl and who was coming on strong late in the season. Either way, I feel most comfortable about our linebacking corps next year.

Think Noor had a touch more PT than Palma in the bowl. Also interested to see how/if Okereke and Alfieri contribute.
Re: D-next year??? - Hank 91 - 01-01-2015
The idea of Lyons switching to safety might have assumed that Carter would still be playing corner. (Or maybe not.)
