In trying to figure out what the team is gonna do with the defense, I could definitely see us playing more "base" by lining up with 3 D-Lineman instead of just two, but with the nickel twist of a safety as 2nd ILB replacement instead of it being a CB/S hybrid being the nickel/replacing a DL. So we'd be running a big nickel variant, or 3-3-5, as the base instead of the 2-4-5 that we have for most of the last season-and-a-half. Arizona uses Deone Bucannon in a similar fashion within their scheme, but they flat out list him as a LB at 6'1'' 216.  If Jones can bump out and be close to what Micah Hyde was in coverage on late passing downs, but often play in the box and give us what Morgan/Bucannon do on early downs-man-we'd have a nice piece to throw at teams.</p></blockquote><p></p>
