So maybe 7 cb's, 3 safety's?
If the 7th cb is better than the 4th safety I can see it possible (if we are primarily a 4-2-5 D). Wilson is a beast on teams, but there is no clear 4th safety to worry about replacing.
I don't think it's Lippett, but keep an eye on Brown. Have heard good things about him pre draft and through camp (mini/ota's)
If a guy isn't good enough, even if he's a LB, what's the point in keeping him?

If the guy wasn't good enough to make the 90 man roster he wasn't good enough to help this team.

Gotta read a bit, but this was the first thing that came to mind:

Starting to feel as though the main requirement for being a part of this defense is playing a game of Six Degrees of Lou Anarumo.

Yeah, both of the defensive players who've played under him before are really taking over the defense.

Great job getting folks off waivers during training camp. How about getting guys that can make an impact when free agency starts?!?! 5-11 here we come....

I'm pretty sure that's what he meant. Hence, start, when they are there.
