Anyone still thinking of the 4-3 is living in the past. That also would be a waste of talent trying to get your most talented pass rusher to be a coverage linebacker. We are much closer to having a good 3-4 defense than 4-3 at this point. Hayes,burns, addison, Miller and others showed potential to thrive in it. Just need some big bodies to shore up and game controls and.we back. In the game.

I'm sure whoever the next head coach is will be advise to run a 3-4.

It might be a thing of the past here but, 

7(8 potentially) out of the 12 teams that will make the playoffs this year use 4-3 as their base. That’s with the cowboys and eagles still not for sure(they both run 4-3).

((also it’s pretty clear none of those you listed can do gap coverage/run protection. 3-4 isn’t all about getting to the QB  on the outside and we don’t have a stud NT. Welcome to 150 yards a game on us for for the first time in over a decade.))

We’re staying in a 34

We don’t have a Vincent wilfork and nose tackles take time to develop. They aren’t plug and play. Had we kept Star he would have made a perfect nose. Sorry Poe, there’s a reason we picked up KC’s dregs. Hate to say it.

Most dlineman take time to develop. This isn’t gonna be a one offseason deal. It’s gonna take some time. 
 

people thinking about Luke are being short sided. My bet is he’s not playing for the panthers in two years.

What does Luke have to do with a nose tackle conversation?

Because people have been talking about how the 34 is bad for Luke and we need to get him in his “most natural” position.

Burns and shaq are gonna be the two that we’re gonna build around on defense. Burns is a prototype 34 outside linebacker And shaq is a prototype 34 ilb. I’d imagine a ton of trench drafting and FA signing.

I still fail to see what that has to do with fielding a nose tackle next year.

We’re gonna be poo bro. This isn’t a one year fix. We have a bunch of scrubs on the dline regardless of 43 or 34. Our best bet is we hit on some draft picks and they light it up early. It’s doubtful.

A year ago SF was scrubs. A year before LA was scrubs. Last year Baltimore was scrubs. Build around what you have. Not what you want or we will be doomed to a fate worse than death.

      Snow in the high country

      By rayzor · Posted

      yeah. winter backpacking trips were the most miserable and amazing experiences. same with the coldest and snowiest hunting  experiences. i love being in it. makes for incredible memories. the worse it was, the more i ended up loving it. made the greatest memories.  i just want to get out of it afterwards.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      I forgot about Jackson...definitely elite.  The sad part of your list is that 2 of them were 'there for the taking for the Panthers'.  Rumor has it that Hurney loved Herbert and was vetoed on trying to trade up.  And rumor has it that Frank & McCown wanted Stroud.  I believe both rumors.

      Snow in the high country

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I went on a solo elk hunt in the Flat Tops. It was awesomely miserable. LOL It was a late season hunt, I think third season and it was forecasted to snap off cold with highs in the upper thirties and lows in the single digits. fug it, I'm going anyway. They were wrong. The highs were in the low 20s and the lows were in the negative teens. I shivered so hard the first night I thought my teeth were going to break. It was the only time I've ever been legit concerned that I might be in trouble. Crawled out of my sleeping bag and got a fire started and suffered through the night bundled up next to the fire. I slept the next two nights literally wearing every stitch of clothing I'd brought with Nalgenes full of near boiling water in the bottom of my sleeping bag. That was the only way to have non-frozen water in the morning anyway. There was about a foot of snow on the ground and the melt/freeze crust was almost enough to support your weight but you'd go crashing through just as you went or make your step. It was exhausting travel and every step sounded like a rifle shot. Hunting was basically impossible. I never saw an elk in those four days, only saw 5-6 deer. LOL It was brutal but I loved it. Absolutely beautiful country that is never been to before and haven't been back since. I needed that four day complete break from society fighting for my life against the elements. I'm weird like that.
