Brown and Jackson pretty much protypical NTs. Brown started at NT last 2 seasons in 3-4. Jackson has only played NT in 3-4 in college. Brown could play any 3-4 line position but his quickness is suited for end. Our OLB are all best suited for 3-4 

 

 

That's gonna be a fun hole to dig out of if we can him and end up back in a 4-3 base. 

Honestly, I would be far less worried about that in terms of those IDL guys than I would our EDGE guys.

I think he's a good player, but I see him as a rotational pass rushing specialist in a 4-3 front. He's just too small to hold up against the run being an every down player and I don't know that he has the juice or the length to move outside to a 3-4 DE. We'll see. I'm definitely curious to see how Evero is going to use him but his track record utilizing tweener types isn't exactly comforting.

He already played in a 3 man front and quite well….but go off on his true fit.

DLew is a massive human and probably our best lineman at the moment..Wharton was still a solid pickup and yea we massively overpaid for his services but that's just the reality when your a team with 7 consecutive losing seasons.  

Once the games count he'll show up. We might not get our $$ worth (top 10- 15) but he's undoubtedly a couple steps up from Tuttle. Him, Brown+Brown+ Robinson should make a very solid lineup in theory.

The Chiefs are primarily a 4-3 scheme under Spagnuolo, but they run a decent amount of 3 man front nickel formations.

I'm definitely not sure of how we're gonna use him in Evero's scheme but I predict that if we try to play him at NT he's gonna get bulldozed all over the field and it won't be his fault. It would just be an awful misusage of him.

I feel like Princely and Scourton can be 4-3 DEs

I noticed a lot of 4-3 fronts last night. They've played a lot of that this preseason for some reason. But when they do line up in 4-3 base Evero will call a delayed blitz almost every time and it never works. His zone defense is absolute garbage and gives up 1st downs every time. His best defense is a 4 man front with man coverage. Even then they cannot stop the run. Its just a bad defense altogether.

Maybe, but I'm not sure. Scourton has been heavy enough but his production dipped big time when he bulked up to the necessary size in college, he also lacks the length. Princely has more length but a considerably less bulk. They were both considered 3-4 OLBs as prospects for a reason.

    • 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.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
