[quote]1. Trimming players down
Pruitt told reporters Wednesday that he’s looking for slimmer, sleeker players. That’s especially true up front.
“We’re trying to get a lot of our bigger guys down,” Pruitt said. “Personally we feel like everybody’s a little heavy. We’d like everybody a bit faster. That’s our preference. We’re trying to slim up just a little. Including the coaching staff.”
Defensive end Ray Drew said he’s now about 282 pounds, after playing at 287 last year. His goal is to be at 275 by the fall.
“It’s that little 1/10th of a second that counts,” Drew said. “There were a few times last year where I had an opportunity to make some plays if I was a step quicker here or a step quicker there.”

This doesn't make sense. There is no difference except nomenclature. You can't have 12 guys on the field.
[quote]This is a more minor, inside football change: Under Grantham, the defense referred to its four linebacker spots as the Will and Sam (outside) and Mike and Money (inside). When the team went to a 4-2-5, the Sam came off the field and was replaced by the star.
That’s changing under Pruitt. In the regular base 3-4 defense, it’s a Sam and Jack (outside linebackers), Will and Mike (inside linebackers). In the nickel 4-2-5 defense, they’ll bring in a star and have a Money and a Mack (inside linebacker). The Jack would likely remain on the field as sort of a combo defensive end/outside linebacker.
