Yes, the main 'specialists' (Zuerein, Hekker, McQuaide and Cooper) all return, which is great. But as is always the case on special teams there will be other gaps to be filled and for Fassel to coach up.
Littleton played 74% of their 2017 special teams snaps. Ebukam 52%. Assuming they start at ILB and OLB respectively I have to assume those numbers go down (Ogletree played less than 15% on ST). Hager and Countess played 60-65% of ST snaps. Do they make the team? Derek Carrier and Cody Davis were two other big ST contributors now gone.
Pro Bowlers everywhere on special teams which is great. But the coverage guys and those blocking for and rushing punts are critical too.
