Lord Draakus Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 If we go 3-4. Do we keep Brooking? Convert Jamal? Reequip in FA? If we switch to a 3-4 Defense. The draft will be significantly different? With the players we have the 3-4 sounds appealing..not sure we got enough up front though. Who would play NT?Lifes a game u gotta play it while U can!!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadianFalcon19 Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Abraham won't play LB. By switching to the 3-4 you ultimately eliminate Abraham one of the highest paid players on the team. Anderson is not strong enough to be a 3-4 DE. We lack anyone at MLB let along 2 MLB's needed.I don't see it happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our defense did NOT work last year and under a "defensive guru" at that. Change is needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Change is needed.i mean it wasnt a top 5 defense but it wasnt terrible. i just cant see us trading abraham. and you never know maybe the defense could improve and become better. it usually takes a team a little while to adjust to a new coach and scheme.

Knight of God Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 I feel that no one has actually given Abe the right selling points on the scheme. If done right, he could still play on the line ala Lawrence Taylor (the REAL LT) and be that much better. Still bring in Suggs and you haveOLB AbrahamILB BrookingILB BoleyOLB SuggsWe were in the bottom 5 for defenses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
