CB - Deion Belue

This is a lock. Started all 14 games last year, is healthy, seems to be making the second year jump.

CB - John Fulton

Not that we'll be in base much anyway, but I still think John will start over Geno. Not that it matters, as I Geno will likely be the Star and Fulton will be outside in extra DB situations.

Star - Geno Smith

Got experience last year, best man for the job.

S - Ha'Sean Clinton-Dix

Lock. 5 INTs last year, ballhawk, great in coverage. Just hoping we don't do silly things like blitzing him, at least not often. He can take away a deep half of the field.

S - Vinnie Sunseri

Currently seems like Vinnie will start at S, won't play Star. That's good. I see him being the Money and Landon Collins playing deep with HaHa in Dime.

Money - Vinnie Sunseri

See above.

As for Jarrick Williams, Jai Miller, and Nick Perry, I think Jarrick and Jai could both see time at Money if it's an extremely important coverage situation and Vinnie could be a liability. I think Perry and Collins may platoon as the Dime Safety, Perry, at least based off of the Spring, seems to have improved.

I can see us playing a 3-2-6 in most of the TAMU game with Vinnie playing close to the line of scrimmage

I think Landon will seize his opportunity and be the full time starter with HaHa by mid season, possibly sooner. He's a 10/10 athlete

I don’t believe Jai Miller will ever see the field for alabama unless its in blow out action...Jai is using bama to get a lil experience under saban (this will look good on his resume when he signs up for the NFL draft next year, the guy is almost 30), getting back in football shape, practicing against the best college players...I don’t believe he will ever see the field his sole purpose to make the league is through Alabama practice under saban.
