Polian: Anthony Spencer will ‘thrive’ in Monte Kiffin’s defense

Former NFL GM Bill Polian said Monday on ESPN that he “absolutely” thinks Spencer will have success returning to the position he played during his collegiate career at Purdue.
“In Monte Kiffin’s defense they’re going to play him in a seven technique, nine technique,” Polian explained. “He’s going to be outside, upfield. He’ll thrive in that. That’s what he did at Purdue. We were excited about him when he was coming out.”
Polian was vice chairman of the Indianapolis Colts in 2007 when Spencer was drafted by the Cowboys with the 26th overall pick. The Colts had the 32nd overall pick and selected wide receiver Anthony Gonzalez.

Joe Thomas said that Spencer was the toughest guy he had to block in college

I’m interested in seeing Spencer play in the 4-3 and not be asked to drop into coverage as much as he has had to in the 3-4. Kiffin defense will allow him to attack

Let's hope he lives up to the hype as a 4-3 DE. Spencer is consuming 1/12 of the Cowboy's entire cap.. thats a lot for 1/53rd of the roster.

This board might not have people that know more than Kiffin, Marinelli, and top NFL executives, but there are at least a few here that I would take as the "final decision maker" on this team over the idiot we have.

Absolutely love Spencer. He's my favorite player on the defense and I think he's been under-appreciated at Dallas. I think he'll explode with Kiffin as it concerns sacks and pressures, though he was an all-around beast in the 3-4 here.
