Quote:Hire Wade Phillips 

 

Yanick is a better pass rusher, but Fowler is better at the rest, run stopping, standing up bltizing, stunt blitzing, next year he will be way removed from the ACL injury, so expect a huge jump for Fowler

 

Even tho he played less snaps then Yanick, Fowler had most tackles, more tackles for loss and more pass deflection, Yanick got his INT due to Fowler pass deflection. 

Where would that leave Yannick though?

 

He played LB his first 2 years at Maryland. He made the switch to DE in his 3rd year and broke out. He's a better fit to rush with his hand in the dirt.

 

He could still rush from a 3 point stance though as a LB in a 3-4. Would it be something like this? Yannick - Jack - Telvin - Fowler? I'd worry about Telvin as an ILB though. Him and Jack need to be able to run around. They'd have to take on a lot of Guards playing ILB in a 3-4.

 

I know coaches can get creative and the good ones will work the scheme around their players, but I'd definitely have some concerns.

 

I don't think this Defensive scheme really needs to be fully redone. I think it needs a couple tweaks, but we finally seen it coming to life this year. Whatever happens, they need to absolutely find a way to get Jack on the field and they need to be more a little more creative with Fowler.
