The players replacing them were on the team and able to play but not good enough to start over last year's starters. This would lead any rational person to believe that the other 3 starters & those behind them aren't very good/very well coached (whatever you want to say).

Not every player on every team every year, but in general, yes. A new starter replacing a departed one is usually not as good in that first year as a new starter as the departed one was the year before.

I agree. In addition, Miles said last year, that was the best OL that he had seen. Why should young players be expected to play when the cohesion of the unit could be jeopardized?
