1st team - Collins and Mills
2nd team - White and Raymond
3rd team - Thomas and Brazil

Nickel - White
Dime - Eugene

Jefferson will play a lot in random spots, but Eugene is our best blitzing DB and is great against guys like Manziel. And he also wasnt the nickel last year. When we went nickel, Collins and Simon were the outside CBs and Mills moved into the slot. Eugene was the dime back, and will be the dime again this year. Hes great in that role. White will be the nickel and that will get him on the field early and get him acclimated to SEC football.

Thanks KG5989.

Surprising that Raymond & White jumped Thomas, but they have more speed.
Hope Holmes is not discouraged. He can benefit from learning from coach Raymond. Has the talent to make the NFL if he stays and gets proper coaching.

Eugene is a solid blitzer and a great contain guy against running QBs, but his coverage skills are average at best. I hope Eugene is replaced as the dime back against teams like UGA that run a more pro style offense.
