Re: what about 3-4??

No. Not right now.

Little would be best suited as an outside backer in the 3-4. I guarantee you there is nobody big enough in our system to play the NT. We need ends that can stop the run and free up our LBs to make plays. We'd have a huge hole at DT, and aditionally a big one at LDE, and possibly RDE. Adeyanju is unproven, and raw at best. His strength is against the run, but how does he develop?

Basically, we need a huge anchor for the 3-4 to be successful. Look at where it's worked. Dallas got rid of La'Roi glover for not being able to play the NT in the 3-4. Pittsburgh has a giant DT. The Patriots have Seymour at DE and Vincent Wilfork at NT. We have noobody whose size or skill compares right now, so it's not a hugely viablle option, in my books.
