The Offseason

[Gmen]

I haven't watched a ton of college football, but I watched bits and pieces of the bowl game Georgia played in and I thought Jarvis Jones looked physically underwhelming. For a top 5 pick like some people thought he would be, I was expecting to see a Demarcus Ware type physically imposing player.

I don't see how you can't like Ogletree. Great sideline to sideline speed, solid tackler, a stonewall at the goal line, and a special teams ace, which I know TC is going to love.

And here's an interesting idea: Barkevious Mingo. I think he could play opposite JPP as our starting DE and would give us speed to chase down RG3 and some more pass rush.

Perry Fewell likes to innovate from time to time. NASCAR, 4-4-3 in middle of season, etc. This offseason is also probably one of our most important when it comes to defense because most likely 80% of the draft will be defense and we have some big players potentially leaving or playing bad(We are also stacked at offense). So I was thinking and looking around and I have to ask, do you guys think it is possible that we could switch a bit to a 3-4?

If we look at our defensive line right now.
Justin Tuck-270
JPP- 280
*Osi- 255
Ojomo- 270
*Shaun Rodgers- 350
*Bernard- 300
Marvin Austin-310
Canty- 320
Linval Joseph- 325
Kuhn- 300
Justin Trattou- 255
Adrian Tracy- 245
Mathias Kiwanuka- 270(OLB)


*May not be on team in 2013 season

We have some pretty big guys except for 2 practice squad and 1 we not sure coming back.

It will definitely take a while to get adjusted, but I mean it does look like it could be interesting if it ever were to happen. The 3-4 team we would try to replicate would probably be the Denver Broncos. They use the 3-4 while also using the 4-3. It would be interesting though definitely. Credit for this whole post goes to minutemancl because he asked about Barkevious Mingo, and I thought about him becoming a poor man's Von Miller.

Would like to hear what you guys think.

NO to the 3-4

Ezekial Ansah? Only 3 years of football, but is 6'6", 270 pounds and might run a 4.6, 4.7 at the combine. Imagine having two absolute freak of natures opposite each other on the DL.

Just finished watching Bama roll all over Notre Dame. I have to say that our philosophy is almost exactly like Alabama. Run down their throat and good defense. Even the coaches act the same. TC and Saban are winning by 40? Look like they are about to kill someone. I am honestly thinking Saban doesn't want to go to the NFL because he is waiting for TC to retire and take his spot.

Watching that game really makes me feel we should go for one of Bama's olineman, maybe Warmack in the 1st. Now however Milliner is definitely not gonna be their at 19, he solidified his #1 cornerback rating I think.

Last thing. AJ McCarron's Gf.

Edit: Manti was shutdown as in he did nothing, however you could definitely tell he is the type of guy that leads a defense. I would not trade up for him though.

Trade back abit for Barrett jones. Prob shouldn't shove Eli though bro.

I want Barrett Jones or Chance Warmack on the Giants line next year. Jones is about as versatile as they come and Warmack is just a mean SOB
