front 7

[jreg1]

Can someone that has been going to training camp tell us what front the defense is using in the 11 on 11 drills. I would guess it would be a 3-4 front but maybe I missed it on the camp reports.

It's a 3-4. I believe the first team unit has usually been Roth-Feguson-Holliday across the line and Porter-Crowder-Ayodele-Anderson across the linebackers.

Thanks man I hope we are better vs the run this season!

The key will be NT Jason Ferguson and they say he is doing a good job in camp. I agree, we MUST stop the run!

I agree also and I still think one more offseason of free agency and another good draft we will be ok. I heard that the cowboys can go two and three deep in their defensive line. I cannot wait until we are able to do that. You can never have enough good young d linemen.

I dont think talent was ever an issue with Ferguson, just health. If he can stay healthy, he'll clog up some holes, Tim Bowens style!!

Our d-line doesn't look too bad as of right now. With Jason Ferguson, Vonnie Holliday, Matt Roth, Randy Starks, Paul Soliai, Phillip Merling, Kendal Langford, and Quintin Moses, we shouldn't have too bad of a rotation on the defensive front. Hopefully the rookies that I named step up and become consistent threats to opposing offensive lines. Behind them, with Ayodele, Crowder, Porter, and Charlie Anderson as potential starters and Torbor and Glymph as backups along with Holliday, our front 7 should be able to make a little bit of noise this year, barring some sort of catastrophic situation.

Quintin Moses has been playing OLB in camp not on the line.

I made a comment about Holliday being on the line and being used as a pass rushing OLB. Maybe Moses can develop into one of those versatile players that can move around a little in certain situations.

Has Torbor been playing ILB or OLB? I was acutually really excited about us signing him, so I'm a little surprised he is not one of the staters at the moment.
