[QUOTE="Techster, post: 141799, member: 360"] JHD back on the team gives us some positional flexibility on the D line. We can flex Gamble out to SDE in a 43 set (Freeman - JHD - Gotsis - Gamble), or flex Gotsis out to DE in a 34 set (Freeman - JHD - Gotsis). Gamble looked really good at SDE. The key is we have some players with positional flexibility to let Roof move the pieces around after the snap if he wants to. I actually think Gotsis is a far more impactful DE than he is playing in the middle, but because he's been our best DT in a very shallow DT pool, it was necessary for him to stick to the middle the majority of the time. The few times he was able to line up at DE, he either made a play or put tons of pressure on the QB. He's quite the load for a blocker to take on 1v1. I really like Marcordes in pass rushing specialist role coming off the edge at OLB. Really brought great pressure and got some sacks coming from there. Will be interesting to see if he takes the next step from pass rushing specialist to full time OLB that can handle covering space and playing against the run. Really excited about the potential of our DL...something we haven't been able to say since the 2008 season when our entire DL comprised of future NFL players. JHD probably is the most important piece to what we'll be able to do in 2015. [/QUOTE]
