this year foreshadowing next year's defense?

Just something that i thought of, but I think there are strong clues signaling that we will switch to a 3-4 next year. Greg Blache is probably not coming back next year due to his age/commitment issues he mentioned in the offseason/health. So we will have a new coordinator. We had a top 5 ranked defense last year with a bad offense, but we insisted on getting defensive players with all our big moves (haynesworth-nosetackle, orakpo-olb, jarmon-DE/OLB). We seemed to have some holes in our defense if we wanted to switch to the 3-4, and I believe that these 3 players perfectly fill those holes (Olb and NT...and DE for when Daniels gets too old)

Also, the fact that we have moved orakpo and wilson to olb was a head scratcher to just about everyone, but I believe that that we are trying to teach them how to stand up for the switch to the 3-4. The 3-4 has been significantly more successful than the 4-3 in recent years, I think that Danny and Vinny are big stat guys and are trying to switch to what works the best. Denver and Green Bay's wildly successful transitions this year i believe will convince us that it is the move to make.
