Roy very much played NT in college.  McCall certainly could do it as well and Brown will definitely be used there too.

I seemed to remember that Roy was a NT in college at Baylor, but he simply doesn't have the strength in the NFL to anchor.  McCall could play there, but how will he look?  I doubt he's a starter, possibly a backup NT.  Brown will absolutely play outside.  They may move him inside on certain packages, but in base formation, he needs to be outside.

My best guess by the current roster is McCall would start NT in base with Brown and YGM flanking him. Biggest weakness to the defense has to be FS with upgrades probably needed at NT, 5tech, ILB and CB as well.

I think LBs are good with Burns, Barno, Haynes, Luvu, Shaq, Chinn, and Smith.

Add Horn, Henderson, Jackson, STO, Taylor, and Woods into the mix and secondary looks ok.

I like Brown and McCall but YGM is too small for the line and may be the odd man out.  

I like Mazie or Tuipolutu in the late second and a free safety in the third.

I'd save our 1st and early second for the offense, Grab 2 of QB, WR, and TE.

Siaki Ika shows up in the mocks a lot. Is anything confirmed that we are going to 3-4?

No nothing confirmed. Evero is a decibel of that 34 but had said in the past you have to build your scheme around your players so it could go either way. Will probably need to see how the team approaches free agency.

Would love Ika no matter the defense, he can play both and would give us a lot of flexibility. To your other point, I haven’t heard anything either.
