Message: <blockquote data-quote="HardRightEdge" data-source="post: 554354">A couple of FYI's:McCarthy stated in his press conference that the Packers have used the base defense on 24% of snaps over the last 5 season.  Nickel frequency has been variously reported in the 62 - 68% frequency over the same period if memory serves.  The other 8 - 14% would be various dime and hybrid configurations like single-down-linemen and zero-down-linemen ("psycho").In the post-draft pressers McCarthy said he sees Thornton as a 1 tech or 3 tech; when Thompson was asked if he sees him at base 5 tech his answer was along the lines of "sure, why not".  As others have noted above, he's seen as a gap guy, not a classic 0 tech NT, which should be no surprise given his size.</blockquote>
