If we're going to a 3-4, what will it look like?
When Quinn was at his peak I always wondered what he could do in a 3-4, now who knows.
Do we have the roster and if not, where are we short?
Thanks.
These coaches don't know what they have yet so it would be hard I suppose for them to project depth charts yet.
But a good guess right now would be that it could look something like this (at this point):
3-tech: Donald, Easley
(they've already said Donald will be a 3-tech and not a standard 3/4 DE)NT: Brockers
LDE: Hayes, Westbrooks
ROLB: Quinn
RILB: Ogletree
LILB: Barron (
in the Rams version of the Deone Bucannon role in the Arizona D)
LOLB: ?
Some possibilities for LOLB from players already on the roster: Forrest, Littleton, Sims, Longacre (though Littleton might be more suited to be depth on the inside, if they keep him).
Question marks: LOLB is up in the air. The potential though is for an undersized strongside in general.
Possible high point: If Quinn comes through, the weakside combo of Donald, Quinn, and Ogletree could be really intriguing.
...
I am very intrigued by those possibilities. Quinn certainly is not done and we have seen ends succeed in this system.
Quinn is a special player and not just an athlete. He is in that upper echelon and should be able to compensate more in this system which will not abuse him as Williams did. He was meant to get after the QB and I believe he will be able to do that barring his back issue taking a turn for the worse which I have not heard any fear of.

Rap on.
