Does anyone have Aaron Maybin's phone #? Tell him he can come back now.

**akcash** · 01-09-2013, 11:16 PM

I think the best lineup would be...

Re: 95/92 50/50
NT: 99
Le: 94

ROLB: 93
Ilb: 55/ draft pick
ILB: 50/ draft pick
LOLB: 56

We need LBs whether we run the 4-3 or the 3-4. If we switch to 3-4, who will play NT?

(Hint: he's not on our roster, and this isn't a "dime a dozen" position)

**billsfan7834** · 01-10-2013, 12:03 AM

DE - M. Williams
NT - Dareus
DT - K. Williams
RLB - M. Anderson/K. Moore
ILB - Bradham
MLB - Barnett
WLB - Jarvis Jones (#8 overall)
CB WR1 - Gilmore
CB WR2 - McKelvin/FA/Rookie
CB Slot - R. Brooks
FS - A. Williams
SS - D. Searcy

Mario will play the other OLB. Mark Anderson at OLB is a joke. Williams and Dareus at the ends, new guy at NT.

or in free agency

Put Bradham in and get rid of Barnett , acouple free agents and a good draft we could pull it off..

As I stated in another thread, it's another year and another defensive scheme and we wonder why our defense continues to suck every year.

The greatest moments of the D for the last 40 years was a 3-4.

We can dream, can't we?

What monster NTs will be available

**Bruce Smith Eats Ya QB** · 01-10-2013, 12:43 PM

No thanks. Stay as a 4 3.

**dave14103** · 01-10-2013, 01:11 PM

The Jets' base defense was 3-4, but they had incorporated a lot of 4-3 formations successfully. I would imagine, and hope, that with the players Buffalo has, they do the opposite, by keeping a 4-3 base, but throwing some 3-4 in, also.

makes sense on paper...

Isn't this fantasy for the 3-4 why we drafted Troup?

That really worked out didn't it?
