[QUOTE="Dantés, post: 865470, member: 12283"] I said that if the FO drafted players with a future DC in mind, and not the current one, then we have bigger problems. You said "they've been doing that for years." So I'm asking you for examples. But whatever. Yes, we have players who can align in different places. Epenesa can also align in different places-- ostensibly as a 5T in a 3-4 or as an edge in an even front. The issue is that his primary alignment in our most common fronts is on the edge, where they've already made huge, whopping investments in guys that are going to play ahead of him. And his versatility as a 5T in odd fronts isn't very valuable when we rarely use odd fronts. You don't got out and spend 118M on edge players, draft another at #12, and then draft [I]another [/I]in the first round the year following. And from what I'm reading/seeing, I do not buy him as an interior player. Maybe the odd snap here or there, but you're drafting this guy to play on the edge. [/QUOTE]
