With Rhule does our interest in Simmons change?

So while trying to find some info on Rhules likely DC, Phil Snow, I found this article that talked about how the Baylor team changed their defensive alignment last year.

https://www.texasfootball.com/article/2019/08/08/baylor-football-why-bears-are-experimenting-with-three-man-defensive-front?ref=article_preview_title

Seems like they ran a lot of 3-3-5, basically nickel out of a three man front.  Article talks about the third safety, which they call "Robber", being important.  Seems like a natural fit for Simmons.  

I also think Brown has to be in heavy consideration also.

Baylor ran a 3-4 Base 

But as you see a Lot of NFL teams do, due to the way the league is going to more passing, they played a lot of nickel packages.

95% of teams in the Big12 run 4+ WR sets.  You have to be able to scheme and match to your opponent.

We ran a 3-3-5 a lot of times this year when we went to a nickel. All that means is 3 linemen, 3 linebackers and 5 DBs/safeties. Since Irvin and Burns were linebackers, anytime they were in there along with 3 down linemen and 5 DBs/safeties we are in essence running a 3-3-5.

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
