In the spring, look for these guys at new spots:

Jimmy Chase - defensive tackle (already practicing there)
Alex Odiari - defensive end (already practicing there)
Shaun Moore - safety
Youri Yenga - linebacker

I think that Yenga has the potential to be a great outside linebacker.

How much did Smart's suspension cost him in favor with Jones?
He's the second leading tackler, but that clearly doesn't mean anything.
Yenga is a lot better overall talent. Does Yenga move to middle and Smart to outside opposite Fleps? Does Yenga move to Will b/c of his speed? Thoughts?

It seems Coach Jones is not a guy who puts a lot of stock in what a player did in the past.

Surely Yenga moves to OLB, where his quickness and speed off the edge can be best utilized as a pass rusher.

Thanks, Scoops. I'd heard about Chase and Odiari, but not the others.

Call me crazy, but I can see Moore being useful at safety, especially if he bulks up a lot. He's tall, very fast and a superior athlete. Will need some time to learn the position, but the potential just might be there.

If JJ held grudges on suspensions, we would have 19 players lookin to transfer

Chase was an OLM before, correct?

Has Shaun Moore played at all this year?

Yep. It's like Red Rover on the liens: Sending Chase to the D-line and Czerniak to the O-Line. I have high hopes that Czerniak grows into the OT position. As a Pole I say you can't have enough Slavs on the line
