Thank you for the correction.
I knew it wasn't a typical 4-3 alignment.

Fletcher has actually said that he's played in a 3-4 before.

Fletcher, who'll likely line up inside next to McIntosh (a restricted free agent), isn't worried about the defense making a big adjustment.

"I've played in a 4-3 and a 3-4," he said. "And some of the things we did last year (under retired coordinator Greg Blache) are related to the 3-4 concept."

what I'm saying is he never played in a base 3-4 defense before. St. Louis ran a 4-3 the whole time fletch was there and buffalo as well ran a 4-3 the whole time he was there, what he means by playing in the 3-4 before is during games they would occasionally run it a few times, which really isn't that big of a deal. It's not like he was always in a 3-4 defense for a whole season, is what I'm saying.

Fletcher on:

The 3-4 defense: "Last year some of our stuff was actually 3-4 principles and concepts. I played in this scheme in Buffalo, but we did it out of a 4-3. It's a defense I'm familiar with because Dick LeBeau was with us in Buffalo."

I thought we cut Henson after his idiotic comments about us (fans).

[MTK]

Henson is still with us, Cody Glenn is the one that got let go and is now with the Colts

The mailbag discusses this.

[SkinsfanNTX]

One possibility is Jamar Chaney from Mississippi State. He is a very good athlete who runs in the low 4.5 range with adequate size and good range.

Rocky will move inside when we sign Joey Porter later this week.

Rocky is an ILB in a 3-4.
Wether we get Porter or not.

I thought Brandon Spikes would be there when we pick in the 2nd round, now...I think he might be there when we pick in the 4th round

What's up SS, why the fall?

[SmootSmack]

Slow, some character concerns after the eye-gouging incident, gets lazy on fundamentals

[CultBrennan59]

^and by slow he means 5.02 second 40ty yard dash times today at this pro day.

[Daseal]

5.02? I'm going to try out for ILB!
