There are a couple of things that you have to consider when it comes to Lito Sheppard. He's had quite a few injuries in recent years, and last year when he started, he wasn't very good. Sheldon Brown has been a reliable player for Philadelphia, even though he doesn't have the natural talent that Lito has. If Lito Sheppard gets back to his previous skill level, then he definately should have the starting position. However, if he plays like he did last year, then Sheldon Brown should get the starting position. Teams have to look at how well a player is playing now, not how well they played a couple of years ago.
