    It's a simple question. Obviously we don't have a lot to go on at this point.

    Wouldn't be surprised to see either Revis or Harris starting. It's already been made clear that there will be major competition at various spots on offense and defense, with CB and ILB being two of them. Barton had an okay but unspectacular season last year and a little competition will either light a fire under his ass or provide us with a new starting ILB.

    I'll say Harris is starting next to Vilma week 1. He's a real 3-4 mauler that we need to stuff the run. Revis will atleast lock down the nickel role and maybe jump to starter midway thru the year depending on his progress. Naturally, we have high expectations for these guys.

    I said Harris. Given that they were shopping Barton AND moved up for Harris they must feel that the position is open. True, the CB position is probably just as open, but Barrett coming back from injury, Miller fighting for his future, there are just too many obstacles for Revis. Plus, I think CB is probably harder to learn than ILB.

    I'm voting for Revis starting at CB. Barrett as the Nickel.

    TC hasn't even started yet, so this is all wild speculation and "I hope for" scenarios. I hope for the tooth fairly to still bring me the $.50 he owes me from 1953 too, which now totals $52,432 with interest.

    I fully agree with this. Harris will be starting next to Vilma on the inside and Revis will lock down at least the nickel role by the first preseason game.

    I don't know. I'm still high on Barton. This is what makes going to TC so awesome... getting to look at these guys (like Harris) in person. Maybe my perceptions will change, I don't know...

    I voted no. Only because I think there is enough depth at their repsective positions to ease them in.........

    1.)Revis can be a nickle back because a healthy Barrett is a decent player. Edit: nickle is not a starter. IMO

    2.) Same can be said about Harris and Barton

    3.) Stuckey, because...........
    A.) I can not say a 3rd reciever is a starter
    B.) McCareins and B. Smith, I really think will be ahead of him on the depth chart.

    4.) Bender is a possibility depending on what Mangini/Tannenbaum decide to do with Kendall but I still think one of W.Smith,Clark will be ahead of him as well.

    Really come opening day I think the answer is none. After week 8, I suspect my answer would be drastically different.

    seems NYJ2K07 thinks everyone will be starting, and Revis will be playing 2 positions at once!

    (I don't really think nickel or 3rd WR is starting, though)

    so now we have four people who think Revis can play two positions at once. should be interesting to see your version of the nickel

    not only that, but jtuds has rookies starting and then says no rookies will start.

    Revis: Nickle (although arguably a nickle is not a "starter")
    Harris: yes b/c I think he is going to be a stud against the run
    Bender: I said yes. I know it seems really unlikely, but there is usually something surprising that happens in camp and someone emerges unexpectedly, perhaps due to an injury or two that create an opportunity.

    Just a feeling... ( know, its a longshot)

    Revis: at the least will be the Nickel, IMO I think and hope he is day one starter

    Harris: will start at ILB

    Stuckey: maybe at PR

    Bender: we can only hope he is better than Clement, which would be great
