Shifting Schemes: New Orleans Saints Switch to 3-4
 

Now that the NFL Draft is over and free agency, for the most part, has run its course, we can now start looking at the defenses in transition and how these new schemes will impact IDP leagues in 2013. I’ve already looked at the Browns and Cowboys, now we turn our attention to the Saints. New Orleans hired defensive coordinator, Rob Ryan, who has run 3-4 schemes in the past and will install one in New Orleans.

What is IDP?

Re: Shifting Schemes: New Orleans Saints Switch to 3-4
 

i was wondering the same thing. maybe it means "i don't play" lol

Re: Shifting Schemes: New Orleans Saints Switch to 3-4
 

individual defensive player

fantasy football leagues into the entire game and not just offense have these players.

Here we have joesams keepers league that had to have defense listed by players not just a team unit. joe would have had it no other way.

I like it because it forces you to follow defensive players all around the NFL.

Individual defensive player.

Its an analysis of their fantasy football success in 2013.

Re: Shifting Schemes: New Orleans Saints Switch to 3-4
 

If Ryan intends to use Will Smith at OLB this defense is screwed

Re: Shifting Schemes: New Orleans Saints Switch to 3-4
 

Good point why does everyone have him at OLB all of a sudden? 34 DE seems to be the best fit for him IMO

Re: Shifting Schemes: New Orleans Saints Switch to 3-4
 

Gallette was mentioned by name and nothing else. Junyah is going to surprise a lot of folks who don't follow the Saints.
Overall, the piece said the same thing we do on the bng board.

Re: Shifting Schemes: New Orleans Saints Switch to 3-4
 

No, we might be screwed if will smith were a starting olb, but as a backup coming in only on certain downs, I believe he could be very beneficial.

Re: Shifting Schemes: New Orleans Saints Switch to 3-4
 

Yep, since its way too costly to cut him, he can best serve us by being used on certain defensive packages. I think he did OK when he slid inside on some of GW's packages. But OLB??? I'm not buying into that unless he drops about 15-20 pounds to improve his agility and speed.

Either way, he and Harper are way overpaid for the scheme we will now use. It should be their last year for both, although Harper is a good candidate to renegotiate. Smith... not so much.

It would not shock me to see both of their salaries released on the final cut.

Quit doing fantasy football years ago. Figured any system that would force me to root for a Dallas player went against God and nature. I've heard of ones that allow you to draft any player you want every week, but I haven't run into one around here. If somehow I were to draft old Will, it certainly wouldn't be as a linebacker. Don't we have like 75-80 real LBs trying out for the team this year?

Re: Shifting Schemes: New Orleans Saints Switch to 3-4
 

what is screwed is some of the fan base.

some of you are phucking whiners. did your dad teach you to be like that or did you achieve whiney yuppiedom on your own accord?

jeez louise some of you do nothing but whine like a beatch about your own team. move to atlanta, whiners.

Re: Shifting Schemes: New Orleans Saints Switch to 3-4
 

The irony...

Re: Shifting Schemes: New Orleans Saints Switch to 3-4
 

We're switching to a 3-4 .... who knew? :wink: :bng:

Re: Shifting Schemes: New Orleans Saints Switch to 3-4
 

The season can't get here fast enough

Re: Shifting Schemes: New Orleans Saints Switch to 3-4
 

FF is only good when you get into leagues not fixed.

last couple of years has had many of them fixed and rigged just about everywhere.

Re: Shifting Schemes: New Orleans Saints Switch to 3-4
 

Tell me about it
I joined a small league last year that allowed you to play 2 QBs,4RBs etc
One hour after the draft three teams traded with each other and all the best players ended up on one team.
The only shane for them was the fact i spanked them like a red headed stepchild in the final.
