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.

WJIII is starting week 1 at outside corner???

And touchbacks also prevent injuries...which is a good thing, and it prevents certain big-play guys from scoring.  It is still pretty nice.  

I think your opinion of Marv's desire to play vets over rookies is well-deserved, but give credit where it is due...Marv is giving the young guys more chances.  

I said before the draft that this year's class will either make or break this team for a long time....with 9 picks, thus far, I would say they have knocked it out of the park.  

And look at guys like Fej, last year's 7th rounder...he got some time last year.  Sure, it was due to injuries but he played in some games and showed it wasn't too big for him.  Vigil started towards the end of last year, and proved he could handle it and is now the starter.  Cody Core got a start last year, and now looks to be in the mix at X receiver.  

The way has changed.
