In most 3-4s the DEs are usually two real DEs and one OLB and a MLB...in this day and age of the passing game one of the LBers is replaced by a DB except on obvious run downs or on first and ten deep in their territory. then on real obvious passing downs...two extra DBs are usually brought in and of course that's when you get hit by draws and screens of course

You still need to stop the run as a priority on defense and make the other team throw more than they want to.

Running QBs create a problem when your back seven is backing off and leave a gap for the QB to take off from the pocket. QBs who run are usually quick and fleet of foot...so LBers are at a disadvantage compared to DBs.

Blitzing always sounds good but when a RB/QB runs for 15-20 yds folks complain about the DC...but that is what can happen when you send a LBer blitzing and he is picked up.
The key is to always disguise blitzs or better yet...not need to because your front four is getting pressure on the QB.

I think UF is in a decent spot to switch to a 3-4 besides LB depth.

Upfront Slaton and Conliffe both have the size to play NT. Looks like the transfer Dunlap is well over 300. DT Campbell, Clarke, Ancurm maybe Carter or Polite. DE Zuniga, Jefferson, Carter or Polite.

OLB/DE Moon and Clayton
