I think that we are likely to carry 7 DL's, 8 LB's and 8 DB's. Do you agree?
CB: Bodden, McCourty, Arrington, Butler/Wilhite
S: Meriweather, Chung, Sanders
CB/S: Darling
==========================================
The issue is counting. We will carry a couple of STers. For example, we might carry Sergio Brown and Page. That would be 10 defensive backs. For me, it is not a matter of shorting other defensive positions. It is a matter of what "positions" the ST specialists play, even though they will rarely play any position at all.

You put Dowling down as a CB. Most people feel he'll be a safety in the long run. I think it will be hard for the Pats to carry 9 DBs this year, unless they go short on the D-line.
