i think maybe mccarthy/thompson/capers have the idea to cross-train and move around everyone in the front seven this year to wreak havoc on the offense. they may be inventing a 'new' defense of sorts---a front full of rebels/spies/rushers/whatever you want to call it.
I believe U R SPOT ON - Other than Raji at NT and Hawk at ILB - the other 5 (of the front 7) will be Rovers interchangeable hands down/up- we do have versatility. these guys have PT at all these positions.
