You know what, I can help you with that.  |
Not gonna run a 4-3.
Gonna run a 3-4 with Miller in the 'rushbacker' spot; he got plenty of sacks for me doing that last year (22, in fact).
I experimented running 4-3 personnel in a 3-4 D last year and it didn't go nearly as poorly as running 3-4 personnel in a 4-3 D did. Jones had almost identical sack numbers in both leagues (I ran him as a 4-3 DE in the other one), Quinn did about the same in both leagues as well.
I know, my personnel is all over the place, but this team came with absolutely nothing on the interior line so I had to run a 3-4 to minimize that damage. I also want to maximize Ellerbe and Kerrigan's value as they're plus players.
I mean hell, if FA just broke perfectly and I fell into some great 4-3 guys, I would consider switching. Or if someone wanted to lose a trade for Kerrigan, I'd probably do that as well (like, for instance, sending me Gerald McCoy or Suh for him; makes that conversion to a 4-3 pretty easy at that point).
But my plan right now is to move forward with a 3-4.
