It occurs to me that a remarkable fraction of the opening-day starting slots are in doubt. To wit:
- Brady is a given.
- Gronk is a given if healthy, but his health is in doubt.
- The other offensive skill position "starters" will likely vary from drive to drive, and so it's not a given which ones actually start, Edelman excepted.
- The OL is in remarkable flux. Even if you don't believe Ben Volin's reporting about Vollmer to LG, the interior OL positions are all in doubt.
- Revis is a given, but the other starting CB is in doubt.
- McCourty is a given, but the other starting S is in doubt.
- If we assume a 4-3, 6 positions are given (the exception is DT next to Wilfork) ... but some people (I'm not one of them) might expect a 3-4 instead.
