Thank you.
I think that BB is working toward a major emphasis to the 43 Defense this year.
#1 I think our personnel is geared more toward a 43 this year. Our strength is our D line. We could line up Seymore and Warren on the ends, with Wilfork and either Smith or Wright in the middle. Jarvis Green can fill in.
#2 There are more and more teams moving to a 34 D so that leaves alot of good 43 players out there. We could probably get a better player for the money on the FA market and in the draft.
#3 The top of this years draft features 2 awsome DL Dorsey and Ellis and 1 may drop to number 7
#4 Our D is smart enough to make the switch since they run the 43 about 20% of the time now (this is a guess)
#5 Our LB situation would go from an area of need to an area of strength. Bruschi in the middle of Thomas and Vrable would be sweet and if we go after Briggs that would be equitable to the Moss move last year.
#6 We could spend the 2008 draft letting Capers build his secondary.
Seymour and Warren on the ends? Do you know how a 4-3 defense works?
Our three laterally quick linebackers covering all that ground are Bruschi Thomas and Vrable?
