Nick says Fin's was a 3-4 team last Year.

[mia4ever]

On if the goal this offseason was to become predominantly a 3-4 team) – “No, I think as I said before, we're not changing our defensive scheme. We were a 3-4 team last year and showed some 4-3 alignments to highlight the personnel we had and I don't see that changing significantly. I'm sure there's going to be a lot of new ideas that will complement that and help us improve in a lot of areas that we have identified that we need to improve in. During the offseason, that's what quality control is all about.â€Â

Hmm.

So I Guess Nick is calling JT poistion a rover(de/lb)

hmm.

With the addition of Caper as a DC
Do we have the right set of LB's on this team ?

 

[Lazy1]

We need to add a few linebackers either way. All our lb's are old beside crowder, and im not ready to say spragan is a future starter or some1 we build the D around.

On the quality of quarterbacks) – “First of all, I don't ever compare anything. Remember? There are good players in the draft, as there usually are. We haven't totally assessed all the quarterback. This is our first look at the quarterbacks that are available. It gives us an opportunity to get a first glance at these guys. We'll have to do some additional studies. Those determinations won't get made for a while because we need to do a lot more gathering of information. Most players have positive qualities. Some have more than others. Some fit what we like to do better. But a lot of those things are things you determine as you gather information about guys and study them. As a coaching staff, we haven't been able to do that yet.â€Â

This Guy is one smart Cookie

i think that Mike Labinjo will impress in camp and earn a roster spot, dont ask me why, just a hunch. he'll add some youth to the position, but LB is still a need.

On if having a large staff makes things easier) – “I don't think it makes my job easier. The only thing I look at is whether everyone is contributing in a positive way, is everybody challenged by the work load they have, and is everyone making a significant contribution to what we do. I've been pleased with the job our staff has done since we've been there. When we have opportunities to improve our staff, we're going to do that. You don't always have the choice to bring a person to your organization when you need to. Sometimes, just like when players are available, you have to make decisions on whether we should bring someone like that into our organization. When coaches are available, you have to make decisions. Will they make a positive contribution to our organization based on their knowledge and experience. So it's not about whether you have an opening or not. It's about whether this is a positive addition to our organization. That's what we've done. That doesn't mean that it creates other issues for somebody else.â€Â

Our player Budget 90million

Our coaching staff budget 90 million

On Dr. Lon Rosen) – “He's here to manage me through the week. I don't think anybody would have a disagreement that that's not something that needed to be done.â€Â

Who is That??

In the 3-4 you always need to be looking for LB's. both veterans and rookies. once again, look at New England, they had Roman phifer, Bryan cox,Roosevelt colvin,etc. In fact, last year everyone besides Bruschi came from another team i think (starters).
