Whitfield and Lloyd are primed to start.  I am not that concerned about Hoffpauir leaving.  Carter and Richards are massive losses in the secondary.  Lyons, Olugbude and Hoffpauir are all pretty average to below average Pac 12 starters and the young highly touted DBs who will be under their second year with Akina should be playing at an equal or higher level for us in 2015 than we got out of Lyons, Olugbude and Hoffpauir in 2014.  Hoffpauir was a good tackler and made some plays but he got exploited by some speedy receivers in bad mismatches.  Carter was a great cover corner who could tackle.  He didn't get the picks and you didn't hear his name a lot but that was usually due to his man not being open.  Big, big loss.
