With our current roster are going to run more 3-4?

I think we will run all schemes depending on opposition.  We will have a very fast, athletic D.  Look for us to mix it up between 4-3, 3-4, and 3-5.

Yes, a strength of this staff is that they do not live and die with one way of doing things (on either side of the ball). Adjustments are made dependent on personnel, opponent, etc. I am excited about what the future holds once all the pieces are in place.

Unless you have all superstars, any decent QB can beat you when they know what your scheme is on defense and who's covering who. But when you can disguise coverages buy having guys who can play multiple ways and positions, you tilt the scale towards the defense by keeping the offense (QB) guessing. And that extra second of hesitation is why you have a good pass rush.

Gross-Matos is undersized to play 3-4 5 tech.

 

That's the problem with our stupid roster. Burns is too small for 4-3 5 tech and Matos is too small for 3-4

Why the hell can't we have 2 6'6 285lb 5s that can run 4.6?

Fng Washington has them.

Do what?

We signed a LBer that has a terrible injury history. Pretending he is going to be available is just fantasy. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/P/PerrDe00.htm

If he contributes great! Just don't rely on him being available or building a D around him.

Roy should be the NT. Fox will probably be an OLB. 

Nah my friend, Fox is a 3, or a 5 tech on the DL. Burns, and Reddick as the OLB's in an Odd front, Matos has experience in a 2pt stance, then add in Haynes / Miller / Luvu as depth on the edge of the front 7.

Honestly, they've got a lot to prove that we can put together a good defense, much less a great one. 

First year, coaching gets a pass.

Second year, we need to see a defensive identity emerge, something besides "do what you want to but leave us alone!"

We were one of the worst defenses in the league last season with our stats being just a bit polished by that shut out of a broken down and dejected Detroit squad.
