We only have two offensive players who we NEED to get out of the game asap as to protect their health for the Giants week one, but when those two guys leave, it makes logical sense to remove some of the other talent we have on the field because they have little left to prove.

I'd like to leave the first defense out there longer. Maybe give them two series in the next game with Haynesworth and Fletcher, and then give them two more series without those two before turning to the backups. But there's certain players on offense (Samuels and Campbell) that we need to have out there on gameday, and it makes no sense to get them more than a cup o coffee in the preseason.
