Blow up an elite defense in the league to go to a 3-4?

Re: 2022 NFL Draft: Draft Prospects, Scouting

I wasn’t necessarily talking about a change in defensive scheme… More along the lines of player prototypes.

For example, in recent years we prefer big, strong, bull-rushing DE’s as opposed to lean, bendy, speed rushers. Likewise, WR’s who are taller and great run blockers as opposed to undersized speedsters.

I'd say they got it right with the bigger DEs - late in the game is when you want to be winning the line of scrimmage...

I pulled all my hair out when Ditka was coach. I'm still bald and can't go through that again.

This is one of the players I'd really like to see us add to the roster...

Don't ignore the first interview, very telling...
