Here are the players I believe get starting nod

Noah Igbinoghene - looks like a steal, probably starts outside if X isn't ready to go and the slot if X is ready.
Austin Jackson - starting LT he may have a rough goat the beginning of the season, just hope he is a fast learner.
Soloman Kindley - RG all practice reports say he a good fit there and up to the task.
Raekwon Davis - dual threat as a run stopper and pass rusher - makes sense that he starts over Godchaux who is one dimensional.

4 starters 2020 draft -
also have Tua, Hunt, Brandon Jones, Malcome Perry who will contribute and work at becoming starters.

Didn't forget the long snapper - Blake Ferguson, they just don't count.

Very pleased you included our Snappa!

And of course -- you gotta count the Snappa!

:lol:
 
I was under the impression, and I could be 100% wrong, that Davis started at RG and Hunt started at RT in our last scrimmage. I know Kindley has impressed in camp, but I’m not sure if he has beat out Davis at RG yet.

Thats my understanding also on the scrimmage, just find it hard to believe that hey are going to start 2 rookie tackles who will leak and want there QB to have some protection, while Davis isn't a great tackle he does have a year there, I could be wrong.

I think it is Nik Needham's job if X isn't ready to go.

I think Godchaux starts next to Wilkins and Raekwon is a rotational piece.

I thought Kindley was ahead of hunt, no?
 
I’m sure davis will “start” in some packages. But I expect it to be highly package based play as a interior rotation of by and large godchaux Wilkins and davis. And I’d be surprised if davis got more snaps than godchaux even if he is probably a little more versatile frame wise for scheme

that other plug Benito may get some package pt if he makes tbe club and is active on gameday. Might be headed to p squad though

Pick one candidate for playing time to ween off during the season. Ie snap count etc.

I will pick davis

pick one candidate for pt to increase in season.

i will pick Brandon jones

really hard to do these damn things or project without being able to see anyone play in preseason at least.

media is a bad thing to base off of
 
The insertion of Jackson and Kindley, into the starting unit, during camp, has pretty much indicated, what Miami may be thinking. I think those 2 are the main guys, who are going to get starters run. Davis, Iggy and Jones look to be in the rotation on defense. With Iggy being a good possibility to start for either Howard or Jones injuries.
