This is especially true when it comes to edges. What matters is gap responsibility. Bradley liked his defensive lineman to slash upfield and try to make plays in the backfield. Desai is probably going to have guys two gap more often, so the interior defensive linemen will be bigger and stronger. It's a good free agency class to grab some guys fitting that mold. Who do you like that fits the bill? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because he does this thing where he shows one thing and does another. For example he’ll show you a lot of zone and then it ends up being man and vice versa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agarcia34 Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 In his one year he did play a lot of zone so maybe a good sign that Hayward could be back but did he play a lot of zone cause his DBs were awful last year and it was an easy choice to get the most out of him or is That what he does Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet Olson and Cable haven't even been told they're not being retained yet, and are probably finding out via the website. I should add that this is absolutely the correct decision to move on from both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hicks is old can’t stay healthy I like hill as a NT Ogunjobi is probably the perfect fit for what this bears DC likes to do upfront Not sure about DJ Jones as a fit but he can stop the run Fatukaski has the body type for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But on the flipside it’s a good off-season to try to get a corner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both have the best profiles for a two gapping scheme. I.e. They are long armed and strong. They also all have pass rushing chops. Jones would be almost strictly a nose, but he would play more than he would in Bradley's scheme. Ogunjobi is a little bowling-bowl-like, but he's strong enough. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is virtually no different between edge player responsibility between most NFL schemes. I think the question with Yannick is whether he should see the field less next season. He doesn't get enough pressure and is a major liability against the run. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
