[quote=Lotus;653903]No, we don't have personnel for the 3-4.

I am not sure that it is certain that we are switching to a 3-4. Lots of rumors but nothing solid has been said, to my knowledge.[/quote]

Yeah speculation is a mother......

Let's see what Haslett says at his press conference

Any timetable yet on the presser?

Just a guess but I'm assuming a 4pm presser tomorrow

re: Shanahan wants a 3-4 Defense
 

[quote=IRISHSKIN24;653917]i agree, it seems like he could be.....and also given the fact that both RAK and carter are speed guys AND both are familiar with the linebacker position. (carter in san fran) I think it could work well.[/quote]

The Reason Carter Left San Fran, Is Because He Didn't Fit Mike Nolans 3-4 Scheme As An OLB, San Fran Wouldn't Resign Him, And Now He's With Us.

re: Shanahan wants a 3-4 Defense
 

so Haslett is a done deal?

[quote=WaldSkins;653924]Carter was a terrible LB in the 3-4 he played in San Fran.[/quote]

[quote=Dirtbag359;653925]Carter was a disaster when he played in the 3-4.[/quote]

jinx!

re: Shanahan wants a 3-4 Defense
 

I like the 3-4, but not with these players!

re: Shanahan wants a 3-4 Defense
 

I'm not sure about the switch with our current personnel but as a scheme I prefer the 3-4 to the 4-3. We've got some pieces that could work (Jarmon, Orakpo, Haynesworth, Blades, McIntosh, Montgomery, Landry) and some that don't fit (Carter, Fletcher) so it's going to be a transition.

I won't be surprised to see us shop Carter for a draft pick since he's not a fit in the 3-4 and he'd bring value.

That is not a bad idea, much as I like Carter.

re: Shanahan wants a 3-4 Defense
 

[quote=WaldSkins;653884]It means Haynesworth would probably be a DE. I think it's a terrible idea to switch to a 3-4.[/quote]

i agree

re: Shanahan wants a 3-4 Defense
 

also london fletcher, our best linebacker would get his ass kicked in a 3-4 scheme, i say keep the 4-3 but go back to the gregg williams style

LOL. I see your username and all I can think of is

re: Shanahan wants a 3-4 Defense
 

want's?

Considering our D-line, although talented, is aging. Griffin, Carter, Wynn...

If we keep Rak on the line and not at LB, I like the move. Haynesworth can handle the middle better than anyone. We'll need to add a lot of LB depth though.

[quote=BallzDeep;654013]also london fletcher, our best linebacker would get his ass kicked in a 3-4 scheme, i say keep the 4-3 but go back to the gregg williams style[/quote]London Fletcher is a great football player. I'm pretty sure that he cound transition from 4-3 MLB to 3-4 ILB. What makes you think he would get his ass kicked? The guy still has excellent speed, and hits like a ton of bricks.
