We still have over a month until the first regular season game. Guys with minor injuries have plenty of time to heal and get ready. Eifert will be back early, and Guenther publicly stated that he didn't expect Dennard to be out for long.
In terms of the safety position we are in a similar spot whether we have to start Derron Smith or Shawn Williams (relatively unknown). While Williams has had a bit more playing time, we still don't know what to expect from him as a regular starter, which is about what you get if you have to start Smith. To beat this dead horse a bit more, Smith was a training camp/preseason stud last year, and reports so far this year indicate that he's having another good camp.
