I don't think MJ, Peko, or Maualuga will be taking snaps from the rookies, since only MJ is still here and by a thread.  The Bengals already tipped their hand showing him taking snaps at NT on pass rushing downs.  His time at RDE is probably relegated to first down only.

Willis had four sacks playing roughly two complete games (four halves).  That is unreal.  We will see Billings, WJIII, Willis, Lawson, and maybe Evans playing a LOT this season, and they will be better for it.  

Touchbacks aren't so nice now that it comes out to the 25.

MJ, Peko, and Maualuga weren't actual people in that example, more representations of people. I could have also said Robert Geathers, Chris Crocker, Cedric Benson, Benjarvus Green-Ellis, etc. Guys who are veterans and you know what you'll get at that point in their career, sub-average play, but they get playing time over people with better (if unproven) potential because Mediocre Marv loves him some reliable mediocrity.

I'm not so sure you'll see much of Will Jack. The guy is 5th on the depth chart at highest. Billings will get his playing time cut into by Pat Sims. Willis/Lawson/Evans will have playing time cut into by Michael Johnson/Kevin Minter/Vinny Rey. It's the way.
