I agree with WIM that Meeks should play every down.  The reason he didn't play CB this year was the lack of strength needed to tackle on running plays. He should develop that in the offseason.  There are plenty of safeties but not many guys can play on an island.

The main reason to move Reid to nickel is to keep Lloyd on the field. I think the staff has a very high opinion of Lloyd, especially as a quarterback for the defense. I don't know that Edwards has the cover skills to move, so Reid is the best option. We know Reid can play the position because the staff started him at NB once this year.

Buncom is the newbie who I see as most likely to break into a big role. He had a big recruiting profile.  Long would have been tough to keep off the field as well. Ulloa and Antoine need a year to add strength. Butler or Edmonds could break into the depth chart but as you see there now is plenty of talent in front of them.
