I agree with your major contributors. For my analysis, I require that a player have 6 career starts (half of a regular season) to be considered a starter. With the guys that you mentioned, it is most likely just a matter of time.cotton, meredith, reed and steinkuhler can all be considered starters now. i think cotton and meredith are well on their way to being stars (cotton may already be there with his blocking - there's a reason we've been so effective running on the perimeter). pj smith looks like a future star. josh williams, brandon thompson and whaley are major contributors. wouldn't be surprised to see courtney osborne be a major contributor or starter at some point as well.
