Jason Taylor would be better siuted to it and we could have Golston and Evans play the ends and Monty play NT. Wilson could probably play some LB and maybe a Suggs in Free agency or a Dansby. What Do you guys think.

I think the biggest issue about going to the 3-4 is that none of the current coaches knows how to run/install it.

Greg Blache is a 4-3 guy the next man in the pecking order is Jerry Gray a
4-3 guy. I don't know about Olivadotti or Palermo background.

But, i agree we could run it. We ran a defense in the second Eagles game that looked alot like a 3-4, Blache just had JT55 stand up and roam around.

Hypothetically we could put:
LE Golston/Evans NT Monty/Griffin/Golston RE Alexander/Evans
LOLB-Carter/Rob Jackson ILB- Rocky ILB-Fletcher ROLB-JT/Wilson

Interesting post.
