Vilma to active roster

We never really play in a 4-3. Most of the time we use a 4 man front with 2 LB's. Lofton, Hawthorne and Vilma will never be on the field together and nor should they be with our DB's playing so well.

It's more 4-2-5, but Vaccaro plays in the box so often he may as well be considered a linebacker in that formation.

If you are trying to get your best players on the field, and considering the amount of DB injuries we're dealing with right now, a straight 4-3 may not be a bad idea on occasion. We know Rob Ryan will find a way to get everybody who deserves playing time on the field one way or another.

Actually we run a lot more 3-3-5 then 4-2-5...

Galette, Hawthorne, Lofton are our LBs on those downs. Harper was the in the box safety when he was active. Vaccaro plays in the box now with Bush over the top...
