Here's a pic someone made from a thread a few months back. Scratch off Isaiah Washington, and Jacoby moved to WR yesterday

NT: G. Gilmore, E. Alexander, T. Shelvin
DE: R. Lawrence, F. Herron, G. Logan
DE: C. LaCouture, D. Clark, N. Farrell
Buck: A. Key, A. Anthony, K. Chaisson
OLB: C. Thompson, M. Divinity/ R. Thornton
ILB: D. White, D. Voorhies, T. Taylor
ILB: D. Alexander, J. Phillips

We are deep at OLBer. I didn't mention Sci Martin only because I don't think he's 100% healthy from injury yet. When he does become healthy we could always move Divinity inside to make us 3 deep at every position.

Starting DL is awesome: Rashard Lawrence, Greg Gilmore, and Ed Alexander.... After the starters its Ed Alexander, Frank Herron, and a bunch of guys that haven't played much.

Starting MLBs are okay: Devin White (stud) and Donnie Alexander (we will see, I could see him improving drastically).... After that its Voorhies and the 3 freshmen

OLB is the strength: Arden Key (one of the best players in the country) will start on one end, the other one I imagine will be a rotater depending on down/distance/opponent's personell. Pass Rushers: Andre Anthony, Sci Martin (injured), K'Lavon Chaisson. Coverage guys: Michael Divinity, Corey Thompson, Ray Thornton?. Could also see us sliding Alexander into an OLB role and replacing him with a Nickle CB.

That front 4, along with Devin White coming in from linebacker is going to be soo dirty.

Considering we've had a relatively significant philosophical change as to what constitutes a front seven with Aranda, we are surprisingly well stocked with players to fit his scheme after only 2 seasons.

Now, the question is: Can any of those big mofos play OLine for a couple of games if necessary?

I consistently see and here Cory Thompson starting in OLB role opposite the buck, but I just don't understand how that's not Divinity's spot! And if that's not his spot idk how D Alexander starts over him inside! The guy got a decent bit of pt last year, did well, is very diverse, and Aranda loved him! I'm not a coach and don't see practice, but it's still a head scratcher to me.

Divinity started the opener, was okay, and then he never really played many meaningful snaps after that. Meanwhile Thompson played a ton at safety before being moved when Aranda came in. He would have started over Divinity last year if not for his injury. Really not that much of a head scratcher.

I actually just uploaded three new pics right before I saw this.
Here you go. I hope you get a kick out of the "Swing Man" icon I used for RT Adrian Magee.

And you got five upvotes for this

Ever heard of a guy named LaCouture? The three guys who will play the most are LaCouture, Lawrence and Alexander (at NG). Gilmore probably starts at NG, but in big moments, against big teams, it will be Ed Alexander. In fact, if Tyler Shelvin can be counted on I doubt Gilmore stays at NG. He would provide great two deep depth at DE/DT.

I wish Jacob Phillips would play Mack. Him and Devin White together would be awesome to watch.
