I wonder if SD would want that first pick?

I think everyone would want the first pick....but doubt they are willing to trade what we should be asking for. And who would you have them taking at #1?

Williams runs a 4-3, but he is also known to adjust his scheme to the player's strengths and weaknesses. I've read it over and over. That being said, I think this points towards bringing Garrett to Cleveland. Anything can happen of course, but it would make sense. Ogbah has been doing better with his hand in the dirt, and Garrett is obviously a 4-3 DE (but could probably do anything). I'm a little concerned about reading how complicated Williams' scheme can be, but I also read that Williams has a documented history of making things better quickly.

Garret - Meder - Shelton - Ogbah
Kirksey - Davis - Collins
Nassib and Orchard as Super Subs that you can rush from anywhere.
Now get this guy some safeties.

In a 4-3, Collins is the MLB and nothing else. He's not an OLB, and never will be. When Davis is playing, only bad things will happen. Davis should only get PT in the goalline 5-4 and ST.
Kirksey/Collins as your nickel LB pair, draft the other starter. Orchard isn't it.

Ya, that's fine with Collins in the middle. I just want the best players on the field, and Davis and Orchard are in the mix until you replace them with better players.
Collins and Kirksey are the two dudes that don't come off the field.

If we're actually going with The Best players, D Bryant is included in there far above Orchard or Davis

We'll see if he's back. I see they redid his contract. He's 30 YO coming off a pec injury with one year left, guess we'll see if Williams wants him or not. If we're drafting Garrett, we've go Garrett, Ogbah and Nassib as DEs, so he could be gone.

1) Bryant would be a DT in a 4-3, as he was in Oakland
2) Orchard was a 4-3 DE in college so throw him in there too.

I had Orchard in there.
If Bryant stays and plays DT, imagine he is a rotational guy at best.

Without drafting/signing another guy, I'd think he gets the majority of the snaps if healthy. I could see Shelton being the guy who comes out more often with Meder coming in on passing downs. Honestly not a bad 3 guy rotation.

Just heard an interesting stat. Last year the Rams' defense played a typical 4-3 defense in about 17% of their snaps. In other words, they were in nickel and dime packages almost ALL of the time. Just food for thought. That tells me we definitely need some defensive backfield help.

Like any good coach should, he will scheme dependent on the players he has at his disposal.

I think now more than ever it's time to throw the checkbook at Jamie Collins. We're $108 million under the cap (or something like that), and we need our beast. Collins gets to the ball, and gets there with no regard for human life. He's versatile, fast, and nasty. LOCK HIM UP.

even without a scheme change we need that.
sucks that farmer's draft of CBs fell through the floor like a ton of bricks.

You realize that almost ALL NFL teams spend less than 25% of their time in their base defenses, right?

But....to expound further on that, I understand that most team, when they go to their nickel DB packages, actually almost always do so with a 4 man front.
That is what the "experts" on Mike and Mike said, anyway.

Well, how about this: Since Williams is being brought in with his primary 4-3 system, this FO may want to accomodate him.
So, perhaps, in fact, instead of a DE or OLB, they may want to go for a top rated DT.
So, sure, fit the scheme to the players at your disposal.....or get the players you want for that system.
So, it is possible that we could see a DT taken in the first two rounds.
