Also, what would we do with Haynesworth? NT or DE? I can't imagine he'd be nearly as valuable in 3-4 as a 4-3. I think of the square peg-round hole analogy a lot of people used with Zorn and the offense the past few years. Seems like we'd be repeating that if we tried to use the 3-4 as our base next year. I'm fine with some 3-4 and 4-4 looks, but 4-3 really should be our base.

I would use AH as a DE in the 3-4, use him the same way that the Ravens use Haloti Ngata. As for the NT, ideally I would try to get Casey Hampton...dream scenario would be snatching Wilfork from Darth Hoody. If not, then bring Aubrayo Franklin from the 49ers. I don't think we can just put anyone at NT, we definitely need to address this position through free agency, before we can groom our own NT.
