Mangini Reveals Details About Defensive Scheme in Press Conference

Ok, it's minimal, but Mangini spoke about a typical "sub package" we will use in his press conference Wednesday. When speaking of Defensive Ends' responsibilities: "On third down, an outside guy would become an inside guy and, typically, outside linebackers become ends in sub. Our ends move in, our linebackers tend to be the edge guys." That means we can probably expect two of Wimbley, Bowens, Hall, Veikune, Brown, or Hunt to put their hands on the ground as DEs, and for at least one of our typical DEs to move inside at times. I can't imagine a situation where it would be good for our pass rush to take Shaun Rogers off the field, but our DTs will probably be two of: Rogers, Robaire Smith, C.J. Mosley, Kenyon Coleman, and Corey Williams. This is very similar personnel to what Romeo Crennel used in some of our nickel and dime packages, hopefully the results are different.
