No doubt there will be roster moves. But right now Burns, Barno, Gross-Matos, Haynes would be considered “LB”. Most of the time it is really more like a 5-2 than a 4-3. I think the key to success and of course my biggest concern would be Derrick Brown. He is not the atypical nose tackle which you need in a 3-4… so I see him moving to what would be called a DE in the 3-4 scheme. I hope that makes sense.

Gross Matos is not a good fit for a 3-4 in my opinion. He could be a casualty. Just not big enough and string enough for 3-4 De… of course my opinion.

Saw this morning where the Panthers announced his official move to OLB. Much more of a fit for him in the 3-4. My only concern is speed but if they have seen that then it’s possible we don’t draft an edge.

YGM is one option. There is at least one other.

Amare Barno has the size and the speed.  I would expect to see Barno opposite Burns.  OR... Maybe a Draftee..
