  • I think the raiders use a 4-3 base defense which is far more suited to wimplys playstyle of successful rushing only with little or no blocker interference ..same for DQJ he would be a rapist in a pure 4-3 base but can barely hold his own in a 3-4 base..

    However now that ryan is moving us into a 34/43 hybrid defense system that may not reign true for jackson if he were out there..

    why do so many teams who run the 3-4 draft 4-3 players and try to convert them to the 3-4? i've never been a fan of doing that.

    Because many of the better pass rushing DE's in college are too small to project to 4-3 DE but are just the right size for 3-4 OLB.

    In the end Wimps sack totals may go up a bit but he is going to get manhandled in the running game making him a overall liability unless he just comes in on obvious passing downs.

    The guy is a classic example of a situational pass rusher.

  • You know what mangini thinks of one dimensional players . Wimpley is about 1/2 dimensional .

  • Wimbley's been working on a new move since his rookie season.

    He doesn't have enough talent for the NFL.

    The 4-3 is the predominant defense used in High School & College ball, so it's a no-brainer. There just aren't many "3-4 ready" players available & that's not changing overnight. Converting players is that much more of a risk, but if you run a 3-4, it is a risk you have to take.

  • The Bears oline is terrible.

    Seems to me there is a AFC North team that does a pretty fine job in that regard.
