[QUOTE="Mondio, post: 780251, member: 10441"] If there is a shift to attacking behind the LOS with Dlinemen rather than have them just hold space at the line, I can see 6 being kept. If you keep attacking with those big guys, it will take their toll and are a lot of teams going to just 2 dlinemen because that's the best alignment or that's the best they can maintain for a season or a game with who they have? We have Daniels, Clark, Wilkerson, Lowery. We'll see what Adams has, he still intrigues me. His college tape shows a guy that can flat out push the middle and attack behind the LOS. He wouldn't be the first to not be able to bring it to the NFL, but maybe he had a bad start and then the injury slowed his progress. We'll see. But that's 5 right there. IF a team had a roster where they have 5 or 6 legitimate guys that can just play the run and push the pocket back into the QB on every play I think we'd see more of them do it. I think at best most teams have 2-3 decent Dlinemen and then some guys. Well they aren't going to keep and extra 4 "guys" if they aren't something special. They'll keep their 2-3 and then another 2 or so for rotation or injury and try and put better guys on the field in other positions. But if Adams does look to be in the mold of another Daniels or Clark and shows it, I think it becomes interesting. If you can keep those 5 guys in a rotation and keep attacking all game long and all season long, you do it. Keeping an extra guy for injury isn't out of the question. But maybe we don't have that guy that is interesting enough to keep. I think most teams in the league might have 1 line of 3 strong and the drop off to the 2nd rotation would be just a bunch of guys and not strong enough to keep attacking. That probably has as much as anything to do with how teams line up as anything the offense is doing. I think a team that has a dline that can attack all game long will win in the end more times than not. They aren't light up front against the run and pressure up the middle all game long will have a greater impact on the QB but games end than trying to play coverage all game long.
