I'm starting Olivier Vernon as LDE in the 4-3. He's strong against the run and has pass rush potential. I'm starting Richard Marshall at FS (need a playmaker) and then moving him to nickel corner and bringing in Chris Clemons as FS in the nickel package...I think the three best DBs are Davis, Smith, and Marshall, and this way we get our 3 best DBs on the field at the same time.

I'm keeping 7 WRs, with Clyde Gates playing the role of the Reggie Bush scatback...using Thomas and Messam as bruising RBs in the mold of the 70s Fullbacks (split back formation instead of I-formation). To keep 7 WR on the roster, I'm going with just 8 OL on the roster and keeping a boatload on the Practice Squad.

Thoughts?
