Fujita gets 3-game suspension. DE Will Smith gets 4 games. DE Anthony Hargrove gets 8 games. LB Jon Vilma gets suspended for the entire season.

Our only backups appear to be youngsters, unless I'm forgetting someone. Johnson and/or Acho get playing time quickly?

TBH, i wouldn't be surprised if the 33 year old just gets cut and retires.

I don't think missing Fujita for 3 games will hurt our defense all that much (if at all)....hoping Acho gets some time early on...loved watching him play at UT. |

| I'm sure Gocong will move to SLB and Maiava will get first crack at WLB. Johnson will get his chance too probably. |

I kinda forgot about Maiava. Must have been subconscious...
Yuck. I'm no pro talent evaluator, but at times, Maiava looked as bad against the run as any LB I've ever seen. He had a game here or there that was passable, but when he was bad, he was horribad. I would be okey-dokey if Maiava didn't make the team, but I'm guessing with Fujita's issues, he'll make the team.

I don't think it was much his fault about the run. Since RDE has been improved (especially for the run) then the LB's will improve as well. |

This. Acho is probably going to compete for a roster spot. |

| I think it has to be Gocong, Jackson & Maiava starting with both Michael-Johnson and Acho getting some time depending on what package they are running. If Michael-Johnson can play the Will spot I would prefer him over Maiava as I just don't think Maiava has shown all that much in his shots. |

Before we move forward with this conversation, let's take the time to learn a little lesson:
Correct: James-Michael Johnson
Incorrect: James Michael-Johnson
Sorry, but men with hyphenated last names just irk me. J-MJ isn't one of those men.
Regarding Fujita, I'd be suprised if he ever gets significant playing time here again. He was declining rapidly before the injury that ended his season in November, and his future was in doubt prior to all this nonsense coming to light.
Scott Fujita's future uncertain after latest injury (Nov 28, 2011) |

I'd be annoyed, but not because I follow basketball. First time I've ever heard that name, if that tells you anything.
That's a lot of letters to fit on the back of a basketball jersey, BTW. |

Acho will almost certainly make the team, especially after the suspension.
As mistake said, Maiava, Jackson, and Gocong will start, JMJ and Acho will be the primary reserves, at least at this point.
