Would a 4-3 really require that much retooling?

[QUOTE="Aaron rodgers is god, post: 485731, member: 1448"] The packers will stay a 3-4 instead of a 4-3. There is a couple reasons for this but there is one main reason. Clay Matthews. Clay Matthews is a pass rusher ( No shocker). In a 4-3 the pass rush come from the 4 down lineman. It is most effective when the rush can get home from the 4 down lineman. I do not see Matthews being a defensive end in a 4-3. People have brought up him up as a Linebacker. He would have to completely change as a player. He would have to play coverage almost exclusively. He would have to play the run completely different. People have said we can just blitz him quite a bit. That beats the whole purpose of rushing 4 and getting pressure with the 4 down lineman. The second reason why we shouldn't is our 4 down lineman that would make sense from our current team wouldn't be fit right. Our line would look like this RDE Perry DT PIckett DT Raji LDE ? People have said Neal Daniels at that LDE spot. The problems with this current line. Perry- Would put him back at his college spot but we have no idea how he will produce. Pickett- No pass rush, Raji- Decent pass rusher could make the transition. LDE This is the biggest problem we would have. We have no player that would truly fit here. We would need a LDE in the draft and another defensive end to fill the spot. In a draft which we could use a lot of help fixing up the defense and replacing players we would spend to much on players who would fit a new scheme. Plus our best player would not be able to do what he does and that is rush the passer. [/QUOTE]
