Was just speaking to his versatility. He really is a different breed in terms of his skill set. If healthy, his presence alone creates some serious flexability to our defense.
I would be very hesitant using the word "exclusive" when talking about the modern day NFL defense. Let alone Bill's defense. This is a guy that was switching from a 43 to 34 in game on a moments notice long before it became the trend that we see today. Most HC's/DC's collect the personnel to fit in either scheme. Seattle, for example, has 34 personnel, that plays a hybrid 43 under. You can switch from one to the other rather quick. I think a kid like Easley is the perfect example defensive flexability in todays game.
I'd be willing to bet we see Easley line up in more than a few gaps during the season, esp over the course of his career ( health provided that is ). Whether it's using his explosivness and violent hands one gapping or reacting to blocks two gapping. It seems more than evident that his positional versatility, high motor and extremely high upside is why the Pats drafted him. I agree that the 3 tech would look like a perfect fit for him. And to a degree it does. But I don't think you want to put a guy like this in a box, so to speak. When he can create pressure from different gaps and alignments.
It's going to be really fun watching this kid play for Bill. Esp with the other talent we have. I mean Wilfork, Collins, Mayo, Jones, DMC, Revis, Browner, Hightower, that is some serious fire power. Of course it's only on paper, but this team is loaded.
