To play early you have to have opportunity, there isn't a defensive coordinator in the NFL that would have broken up that defense to get a rookie onto the field. This year however, do opportunities exist? H3ll yea, NT, RDE, ILB, ROLB, FS, LCB, the givens are Cam, Timmons, Worilds, Ike and Troy, the rest are up for grabs, probably won't be taken by a rookie, but opportunity exists, unlike a few years ago.
