Four's probably a bit thin but there's no guarantee that Mauga is even physically able to play and I would think that as of today, March is the starter, as Mauga's missed almost all of TC and preseason.
If Mauga's not ready to go, waived or placed on IR, I'd imagine Dorsey would grab someone off waivers, unless they have faith in Terrence Smith.

I wouldn't move on from Mauga, not for the relatively paltry cap savings they'd get.

March had one injury issue, a torn meniscus. Outside of that, I don't recall him being labeled "Injury Prone".
I understand your hesitation to move on from Mauga but keep in mind, the guy was a late July 2014 acquisition himself. I guess I just don't see him as irreplaceable.
