[QUOTE="mradtke66, post: 723543, member: 4199"] Except, no, you don't. Get over the idea that there is some significant difference between a 3-4 and 4-3. There isn't. Our OLBs have the approximate size, shape, and responsibilities of 4-3 ends. Maybe giving up 5-15 pounds, depending on how you're comparing, but they are also about 5-15 pounds heavier than a typical 4-3 SOLB, which lines up with the rest of their responsibilities, so it evens out. Compare our 2-4 nickel to a typical 4-2 nickel. The only difference is our two EDGE guys are in a two point stance. Or consider this: If we switched to a 4-3 tomorrow, our front 7 (and nickel 6) would almost certainly be the same. Clark is our current NT, he'd be the new NT. Daniels would become our 3-technique DT. Lowry the left/strong side DE. Perry or Matthews would be the weak/right DE and the other the left/strong OLB. Jake Ryan the MIKE, Martinez the WILL, we're done, and have a front 7 scheme that lines up with what Seattle does and what Green Bay did under Fritz-- 4-3 under, aka, the 3-4/4-3 hybrid. Now, in this crazy 4-3 world, when it's time to go nickel, Clark would probably be pulled, because the's the worst pass rusher. So we move Clay from SOLB to DE, which is pretty much what Denver did when they were a 4-3 team with Von Miller. [/QUOTE]
