Let me start off with a few questions you should ask yourself
1. Can Frank Alexander play 3-4 OLB??
2. Can Beason come back healthy??
3. Can Beason and Keek play MLB in a 3-4 system??
Here is what the front 7 would be projected to be.
DE CJ.
NT No true NT on the roster
DE Hardy
OLB Alexander
MLB Keek
MLB Beason
OLB We don't have another one on the roster, but there are some talented 3-4 OLB's in the draft
Benefits of us running a 3-4.
Getting rid of cap casualty James Anderson, having both Beason and Keek in the midle, possiblty of a better pass rush and having Alexander, Hardy and CJ three good pass rushers all on the field at once
Drawbacks- No true NT and it might not fit our players strengths.
Draft impact and needs to run a 3-4 (Same needs as 4-3 in secondary)
NT- needed one anyway, but we wouldn't need 2 in a 3-4
OLB- We would need a pass rushing LB (probably not needed in a 4-3 ) and there are some talented 3-4 OLB's in the draft
There you have it. Would you support the switch?
