nucci Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 If we stay 4-3 there should still be no more Chris Kelsay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ctown Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 If we stay 4-3 there should still be no more Chris Kelsay. if we go to a 3/4 the lineup could look like this DE Williams NT Stroud DE Kelsay OLB Schoebel/Maybin ILB Poz/Mitchell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

earthtobrint Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 what is the other option? Kelsay gets cut and Stroud/Johnson/a free agent plays DE. There's quite a few threads that have discussed this already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

earthtobrint Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 i would be surprised if kelsay gets cut. he is not a disaster. He isn't a disaster but he isn't worth what we're paying him and he wouldn't fit in a 3-4. We don't even know if we are changing schemes at this point, though.

generaLee83 Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 thank god... Kelsay is terrible and should have been cut before ever being signed. In the 3-4 I could see Stroud playing NT for a year with Johnson and Williams as DE's. Yes I do understand that Stroud may be too light for NT but play him for 1 year and then he moves to DE. Maybin and Schobel (for 1 year) to OLB while Poz and Mitchell play the inside. The secondary stays the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob in STL Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 if we go to a 3/4 the lineup could look like this DE Williams NT Stroud DE Kelsay OLB Schoebel/Maybin ILB Poz/Mitchell Recipe for disaster right now. We will need a NT to rotate with Stroud for one thing. Kelsey and Williams are not 3-4 DEs for another. Maybin has no pass coverage skills, and neither does Schoebel. Other than that it looks great. We are not ready to move to a 3-4. Maybe after the draft and free agency, if can sign acquire a few players on the front 7 that can play both 3-4 and 4-3, then we can transition to 3-4 next year. Funny how all of the great schemes change over time ... back in the Super Bowl years a lot of Bills fans complained about the 3-4. We we prone to running attacks that featured big powerful OLs. For example, NY Giants, Washington Redskins, and Dallas Cowboys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ishouldbegm Posted January 24, 2010 Author Share Posted January 24, 2010 if the bills plan on playing a 3-4 they need: atleast 1 starting olb, and about 3 back up lbs a nt and a back up and probably 1 starter worthy de. they could trade schobel and whitner and get some more picks/ players to make the transition easier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iinii Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 if we go to a 3/4 the lineup could look like this DE Williams NT Stroud DE Kelsay OLB Schoebel/Maybin ILB Poz/Mitchell I have a feeling if we go 3-4 then this won't resemble our starting line up much at all. You can't make orange juice out of grapes. There will have to be some acquistions to transition to the other scheme needless to say. Good thing the season is a long way off so that speculation can run rampant until then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBuff423 Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 I for one would love to see Kelsay and Denney shown the door.......along with the advent of the 3-4 Defense being introduced of course...and Maybin being transitioned to the OLB, but overall the D line needs a signficant upgrade......yeah, I know uh..duh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Trooth Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 he wouldn't fit in a 3-4 Dude... you don't know that. He might be able to be an OLB. Green Bay and Denver switched to 3-4 and a few of their DEs ended up playing at OLB... and playing well. Don't put money on it either way... just watch and see what happens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tennesseeboy Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 didn't Gregg Williams come in and take a first rate defense based on a 3-4 and "convert" it to the 4-3 he was more comfortable with, resulting in Hansen retiring, and us not going to the playoff since. Before a coach comes in and makes major structural changes he might look where the major problems are (hint....OFFENSIVE LINE) and perhaps address that with the limited resources he will have with the draft or free agency. OR...he could jerk around the personnel we have in our existing 4-3 to play positions they never played, perhaps because they don't play them very well, and gerrymander a structure with the wrong personnel playing in the wrong positions and hope for success....kind of like we've been doing with the offensive line. Sounds like a plan to me! Fits right in with our philosophy over the last decade...plus ca change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
