Cavan manager Donal Keogan will include four championship novices when his side face Antrim in Sunday's Ulster football championship curtain-raiser.
Rory Dunne and Barry Watters have both graduated from last year's minor ranks and will start at full-back and left-half forward respectively.
Midfielder Michael McDonald and half-back Dermot Sheridan will also make their first start at this level.
Cavan endured a miserable league campaign, managing just a solitary win over Cork as they were relegated from Division Two, but aim to bounce back in Belfast and will start as favourites against the Saffrons.
Cavan: J O'Reilly; M Hannon, R Dunne, M Brides; D Sheridan, A Forde, M Cahill; M McDonald, D McCabe; M Reilly, R Flanagan, B Watters; C Mackey, S Johnston, J O'Reilly.
