I know starting two 3 techs would be highly unusual but who knows, Philips may be planning on just that.
If Easley does start it will be as a 5-tech (or a 4i), not a 3-tech. The only times there may be 2 3 techiques at same time is in a Bear front or when showing double A-Gap pressure.
From what I've seen he will have one player on a tackle (maybe outside shade or inside shade, maybe rarely head-up), one player on outside shoulder of the guard which will be Donald and one player shaded on one side of the center, which will likely be Brockers.
But, if Phillips prefers and inside shade of the tackle (4i) then maybe Easley would be the starter.
I am curious to see how it will shake out, but Westbrooks is more powerful than Easley, better at POA, Easley is a poor man's Donald who has enough ability to play more than one position. He hustles, but also seems to make some errors, too.
This link shows where guys often line up, the player opposite the 3-tech can be anywhere fro, 4i to 7 techbnique, that's more Westrbooks's area of skill
