What will the starting lineup look like?

White, Robinson, Martin, Mills? Collins at Nickel?

I would like to see Collins go to safety. In my opinion, he has the size and speed to do so. I have seen him run down people from behind many times in his career. I do not think he is a great cover corner.

I don't see Mills starting, he is not a good cover man.

CBs are set. Best guess is Thompson at SS and Jefferson at FS. I'd say Mills is at the nickel.

Mills made some pretty nice plays from the safety position in the bowl game. I'd like to see him stay there at least to just give the secondary a little leadership/experience. I'd like to see white and Robinson at the corner spots.

Or if anything some depth at safety. Maybe Mills can be a utility guy that plays both Nickel and FS

what I'd like to see (going strictly off the guys on campus)

CB - Tre, RR
S - Mills, Rickey Jeff
nickel - Dwayne Thomas
mustang - Collins (either at an outside CB with Tre bumping inside, or as a safety with Mills bumping down to a slot CB)

I'm not that big on Thompson, and even less so on Martin. hopefully both get healthy and improve.

I agree with all of this. And don't be surprised if Thompson moves to OLB...

I think other than DT and MLB this has the makings of a good young talented defense. If those positions can step up this could be a special team. I really feel like the secondary and ends will be the strength of the team which is a good combo to have to shut down passing offenses.

I expect to see Jefferswag, Mills, and Thompson splitting the time.

And I expect Adams to see plenty of time as well.
