[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 764587, member: 10086"] Seeing the interest in Wilkerson sends a signal IMO. It sais that one direction Pettine is thinking is in adding superior talent to the D Line, of course the obvious is it gives us a few more sacks upfront and some better short yardage D packages. But I think the indirect effect is that it takes focus off of other players to get after the QB. Previously, an opposing Defense would concentrate on blocking Big Mike with double teams. But in this case, it would be awful hard to double team Big Mike with Kenny Clark working next to him, then Mo Wilkerson and bringing up Perry or Lowry in various packages and working on the front line in unison, add to that CM3 and a guy like Derwin James (please Lord) coming off opposite edges on a Blitz? and that's a load to handle for even an experienced Offensive unit. My contention has always been to combine that type scenario with more man to man full court press of the LOS because no QB is going to have all day to pick us apart on a regular basis like we've all witnessed in the recent past. Throws are going to have to become more often anticipated, therefore disturbing timing on the WR route tree is as crucial as anything I'd keep Martinez as a lateral spy on obvious passing downs and he has the quickness to cover in the open field a QB who decides to run for it (not to mention he's a punishing type tackler) There would be a lot of scrambling going on in the pocket (thank you Russell) and the QB not having a clear running lane and hesitating one more second would be detrimental to his health. You have to be a QB pocket tone setter in this day of West Coast style football. We can no longer afford to play latter day "AJ Hawk" style football and play off our heals backpeddling in anticipation. Disturbing the QB's timing is paramount, particularly early in the contest and in the last 5 minutes or so. [/QUOTE]
