Peace Frog Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 (edited) We could go Lawson/Lotulelei/Hughes backed with possibly Edmunds/Milano/White/Alexander. Your thoughts? UPDATE! Well, that's about what I figured the response would be. Do I think switching to a 3-4 front 7 is a good idea? Of course not. Even if I did, we don't have the D-line personnel for that. I do, however, think we should jump at the chance to draft Devin White if he is there at 9, although I don't think he will be there for us to get. Keep those hot opinions coming folks!

NewEra Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Lol. No, we don’t go 3-4 defense. 0 chance. we could take him though and have moving parts. Lots of disguising of blitzes with white, Edmunds and Milano out there 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 My thought is don’t take a LB anywhere near round 1 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention, LB is the position that historically has the highest rate of success for 1st round picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsfanAZ Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 So the logic here is to take the second best defense in the NFL and change it to something completely different based on a rookie?? 2 4 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptnCoke11 Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Is there anything as a 3-4 defense anymore? Nickel is the primary defense anymore 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 McD isn’t going to change what he does for one player. He has his scheme, and he’s going to run it. Tweaks? Sure. Change? No way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many other pieces on our D aren’t good fits for a 3-4. I don’t think there’s anyway they’d switch because of 1 guy. Now, I’d take White at 9 if he was there, move Edmunds to an outside backer/edge hybrid and we’d be in business. Milano would still get plenty of time in coverage situations and LORAX could be exclusively a pass rusher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSHMEAB Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 (edited) I'm thinking we take White in the first and make Milano an OUTSIDE outside linebacker. I could easily see McDermott abandoning his entire defensive philosophy and switching to a 2-5 scheme. Edited April 6, 2019 by LSHMEAB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickey Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 I don't see why he can't play weakside LB in a 4-3. Played in a zone defense in college so I imagine our defense wouldn't be all that new to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BubbaT Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Changing systems after we changed coaches and then having to change all our personnel, thereby guaranteeing we'd stink for quite some time, is what we used to do. So, NO!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just don’t build a team that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 White will probably (hopefully) go in the first 8 picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Call_Of_Ktulu Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 If White makes it past the Lions I will eat my shoe. The Lions have zero LB’s, if the Bills want White they will need to get in front of the Lions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aristocrat Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 We’re staying 4-3 and putting Edmonds outside. Kuechly played outside year one and then moved inside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
