4. We don't know what we have in Christian Rolland-Wallace, Nazeeh Johnson or Eric Scott yet. But many believe CRW is the second best slot guy on the roster after Mcduffie and Nazeeh and Eric have traits that could be moulded into a decent player as the season progresses hopefully.
5. Next Thursday will be the first time our top defense will take the field. Until we see the whole squad together it's futile to judge it. Watson, Williams and Nazeeh never played with Reid, Bolton, Jones etc in the limited minutes they had this preseason and that matters imo.
So my point is let's wait and see what our secondary does when all the best players are on the field together.

There is some truth in this post.
I have a feeling our DB lineup will depend on the team and the WRs that we are facing. We all know that Nazeeh Johnson was doing great until his knee injury. If he can get back to where he was before that injury it will change things. I think we will see McDuffie on the opposing team's best WR and the rest of the CBs will line up accordingly.
