[QUOTE="Einstein McFly, post: 461157, member: 6663"] I've been thinking about this as well. It occurred to me when they took Perry (knowing they'd have to teach him a new scheme and new techniques) rather than Courtney Upshaw who was already a great pass rushing OLB in a 3-4. I assumed it's because they thought that Upshaw had a better chance to produce this year due to a more shallow learning curve but that once he gets going Perry will be the superior player for the bulk of his career. Of course, Upshaw is injured and hasn't taken the starting job they tried to give him in Baltimore, but that's neither here nor there. The point is, they're taking the long view. This is a bit frustrating in that championship windows close so fast in the nfl nowadays, but I guess we just have to trust that they know what they're doing. Anyway, I suspect the same is true for Worthy. There were probably plenty of guys that had played DE in a 3-4 who would be having more of an impact right now, but down the road (and I hope it's not three years) we'll see that Worthy is doing a better job than those other guys.
