the 2015 campaign isn't over yet but in thinking about the 2016 defense much of the concern is the depleted LB corps especially if Beckwith leaves early. That's been discussed at length.
But IMO the vacated CB spot will be just a big of a concern if White leaves as expected . Tolliver should be solid in his Soph season . Who wins the job opposite Tolliver?
Donte Jackson will be given a long look since he flashed skills at times in 2015 . But the little guy is listed at 5'11". 167 lbs. I repeat 167 lbs. CBs can be called on to run support and at 167 that may be an issue.
Ed Paris seemed to have won the job coming out of Spring ball but was never heard from again.he may transfer.
Thomas will be a Sr but was burned so often that one wonders about his confidence.
Xavier Lewis didn't have a chance to show in 2015.
Smith and Fulton ( if he signs) will be highly rated true Fr but I never feel comfortable with true Fr at CB unless their last name is Peterson .
