I have a mailbox full of questions about the 3-3-5. Mostly about personnel.I thought I would throw out a look at how the front 7 would look.

I still have to go with big guys in my front 3. I know this defense is about speed speed speed but I would at least try some bigger guys at first. I think the defense will do better in this conference trying to stay as big as possible.

Strong side DE - Cam Heyward.
Nose - Larimore. I would love to be bigger here. I am at least going to have a big nose no matter how big I am at the end spots.
Weakside DE - Doug Worthington. The more three-man front the better for Worthington. He will be a better player and maybe a shot at the Show out of either odd man or 3-3-5.

Strong side LB - Homan. Doesn't stand out because he is not on the field alot. Nobody makes more out of so few reps.
Middle LB - Spitler. I want to be as big in the middle as I can. My Mike does not need to be fast. He needs to be fast enough.
Weakside LB - Sabino. He wants to go go go. In this defense that can be more of an asset.

People wanted to see Hines and Moeller on the field at the same time. They will be in the 3-3-5.
Strong side Spur - Tyler Moeller.
Weakside Spur - Jermale Hines.

Moeller is the stronger of the two and a little bigger. Hines, the more athletic and faster, plays on the open side.
