Mosley would be my guess, with Anoma and Moses getting some snaps over there.

Could be Benton - they both have seen similar playing time this year.
I'm hoping Benton honestly, he played high school ball 45 minutes away from where I live now so he has a hometown feel for me. Same for Jennings, he's from about 45 the other way.

I think I read Moses has been getting snaps at outside backer, I guess McMillan would cover his spot?
My guess is you'll see Wilson and Moses as the ILBs when we're in nickel, with Ray/Anoma filling Miller's spot in passing situations, Mosley on the other downs. In dime, I think you'll see Wilson at LB and Moses dropping down to fill Miller's spot.

I'd rather not have Ray out there when they can get him matched up on a H-B that comes across the LOS or isolated on the QB on a zone read. Anoma if he is ready to go would be the athletic matchup for those situations but a big liability on the run right now.

Yeah, Anoma has a tough time holding the edge on run plays. He is awesome as a pass rusher, though. Same with Moses. Mosley can hold the edge, but is not as good a pass rusher.

Guys, Miller is going to play, he just might not be able to play as many snaps as you are used to seeing him. This is his last game. He is going to play.

Hope you are right but I don't see it happening. If he does he won't be effective IMO.
Hamstrings are too difficult to predict. Just no way to know until he gives it 100% on a play. So he will probably give it a go, and then we will all find out.

Saban isn't really deceptive with the media. So I take him at his word when he says Miller has not participated a ton which historically means he's a no-go if he doesn't participate fully today.

I hope we can get some quality snaps out of him. I know he'll give it everything he's got to get out there.
