Lamur did not look great last year, but I don't think he was as bad as many people here seem to think.  Plus I look for him to improve this year since '14 was his first season playing a new position.

I am not sure who else would line up in nickel (which is over 2/3rds of the defensive snaps) with Hawk.  Possibly Dawson if he really shines in the preseason, but I would be surprised if he beat out Lamur for the other spot in nickel.

Of course, the return of Burfict would change everything but I will be very surprised if he is ready at the start of the season.
