Was going to just as about KT's playing time, but figured I'd see what the D is looking like right now.

E.Paris will start over Tolliver to start the year. Paris could surprise some people who think it's Tolivers job to win.

Adams, White, Mills will definitely start in the secondary. Corner opposite white looks to be up for grabs. Paris and Toliver seem to be in the lead. D. Thomas may be inn the mix as well.
Godchaux and Lacoutre at DT. Ends appear to be up for grabs. Teuhuma and Bower may have an inside track.
Beckwith is a lock at MLB. Louis and Maybe Garrett at OLB.

DE- Tashaun Bower, Deondre Clark maybe??
DT- Lacature, Godchaux
OLB-Lamar Louis, Clifton Garrett
MLB- Kendall Beckwith
CB- White, Toliver/Ed Paris with Dwayne Thomas playing alot of nickel
SS- Adams
FS- Mills
There will be a ton of DB rotation
That's my best guess anyway.

Don't forget Dwayne Thomas. We haven't seen him much on the outside, but I've always been impressed with his play.

That secondary 
And when you think about backups like Ricky Jefferson, Kevin Toliver, Dwayne Thomas, Jeremy Cutrer

CG is currently our 2nd team MLB. Deion Jones has replaced Kwon Alexander at WLB.

What this guy says. He's on the Money.
Bain has a sizeable lead on other DE's and is the starter along with Bower at DE. Paris is ahead of Toliver at CB. Toliver will get time on field, however, as nickle and may eventually surpass Paris, but Paris is the current leader in the house.

Can't forget Dwayne but I just laid down 11. His leadership skills are what have really jumped out post-injury..can't wait to see him back on the field.
Posted on 4/9/15 at 11:15 am to NFLSU
I'm interested to see if they try to move Thomas outside or if they just keep him in nickel. I don't know that we have ever seen him play outside.

I can't see DT being put on an island unless some serious injuries occur. His blitzing skills to go along with his open field tackling are special.

Quick hijack but I think LSUs special teams (PR/KR) is finna eat too

This will be one of the deepest, most talented defenses that LSU has ever had from all 11 positions - on paper.
It all has to come together and I am not comparing it to 2011 or anything, but it will be stacked.
Lots of rotation everywhere as the 2's are very good in their own right. Ed O said he wants to rotate 8 on the DLine. We haven't been able to do that the past few years successfully. Hopefully, that will help keep pressure on the QB and help in late game situations.
I agree with NFLSU's prediction of the starters. But, I would add that the backups will get a lot of PT as well and we'll often be in a 4-2-5 because our secondary is so very good.

This is the most likely by far but maybe not the "best four" IMHO. I find myself still thinking Mills moving down to Corner allows us to get Jefferson on the field. In fairness, we have all only seen Paris in limited action so I may be TOTALLY off-base. And not to mention the other talented kids like KT. Regardless, it's an embarrassment of riches.
I also think Neal and Teauhema will make a lot of noise on the DL.

I don't blame you if you do, it is tough not to compare our D this year to 2011. Insane experience returning? Check. Extremely talented at every single position? Check.
If KT doesn't start, any chance he sees the field in Nickel or Dime?

i'd say so
he will see the field a lot

Secondary will rival 2011 as the best ever at LSU

Absolutely.
I think it will be White, Paris, Toliver and Thomas in that order and all 4 will play a ton

ehhh, I'll be skeptical of our special teams as long as Peveto is in charge of them.
