Hitchens might be way better in a 4-3, too, and so would Chris Jones.
You go 4-3 you can probably get away with this year one: DOD Hitchens Rookie/FA Ford Nnadi Jones Houston I actually think DOD would be a stud weakside linebacker. The only big issue here is if Ford can hold up every down as a DE. |

I don't remember but does he run an aggressive blitizing D?
Edit: 88 answered my question, I guess I should looked him up in Wikipedia |

They were historically bad this past year. It's time for some changes.

Pretty underwhelming, but at this point there isn't much left. I wish that Reid would have went outside of his circle. His circle has been phenomenal on offense, but defensively not so much.
With that said, it has to be an upgrade, even if it's just because we have a fresh set of eyes, and a slightly different message to the players each day. As others have pointed out, it's not like we need to turn into the Baltimore Ravens to win with this offense. We just need to field a D that is in the middle 15-20 range, and we have a great shot to improve as a team. |

I felt like the moves we made last offseason signaled we either wanted to consider a 4-3 or a hybrid. Hitchens has played in that front. Speaks and Nnadi are arguably better suited for a 4-3.

Guy's a JAG.
There might be a marginal upgrade here but this is organizational cowardice; known mediocrity over taking a chance on a guy who actually be a force multplier of some sort. Even money says our defense is again in the bottom 1/3 of the league in most meaningful categories next year. If we're lucky we'll win the next shootout in January but Spags won't do anything to help us avoid it. There's just very little 'there' there. He's sizzle over steak and has been since he was exposed with the Rams. He has 1 halfway decent defense over the last 10 seasons to his credit and a whole bunch of pretty shitty ones. |

Yeah it's almost like they were gearing up for a switch anyway. Speaks and Kpass make zero sense as OLB's in a 3-4. Last edited by kcclone; 01-23-2019 at 10:01 AM.. |
