I hope he does'nt treat the Safety position as an afterthought.
I played one year of Safety and i was fat but yet i could turn my head and swat A ball down
theres no excuse why these dbs cant
Even though Nolan cut his teeth by running 3-4 defenses, it's unlikely we transition to that anytime soon with the way our personnel looks. Seems like an easy call that we'll stay with a 4-3.
In looking at what Nolan really like in his players, it amounts to the following:
1. Big bodies in the middle to help take on blockers and keep his LB's clean
2. Small,quick DE's (260 lbs. or so) valuing pure speed and bend over size
3. Linebackers who are quick and can run. Blitzing, ability to track backs and TE's off the ball
4. Cornerbacks that are long and rangy
With that in mind, I would expect our DT's to get beefed up a bit. Guys like Javon Kinlaw, Leki Fotu, Marvin Wilson fit the profile of run stuffers who could help bolster our inside
You had me at fat guy in the middle! I think Nolan will have something to work with for his scheme.Even though Nolan cut his teeth by running 3-4 defenses, it's unlikely we transition to that anytime soon with the way our personnel looks. Seems like an easy call that we'll stay with a 4-3.

Looking at some UFA players he's leaving in NO that might fit for DAL are:
DE Noah Spence
LB AJ Klein
CB PJ Williams
SS Von Bell
Never quite understood why Marinelli had no need for one in his scheme.I want this team to draft a good DT (nose tackle). This has been a missing element for years under the overrated Marinelli.

High picks with Taco and Trysten hurt badI'll just be happy to see him not in the draft room. Dude can't evaluate talent at the position, just coach it.

I want a fat, fat ******* clogging up running lanes.

Reading this thread
Everyone looking for the guy from my 600 lb life to play DT
I’m glad we’re having fun again
Totally agree. I just don’t understand that when the Wr puts his hands up and his eyes get big, that they need to turn their head around. Pretty sure the ball is coming.I played one year of Safety and i was fat but yet i could turn my head and swat A ball down

Which teams were 4-3?He’s coached 14 years as DC. Had 7 on a 3-4 and 7 in a 4-3. I’d love to see a Patriots/Jets style hybrid defense.
