Steely Dan Posted March 5, 2010 Posted March 5, 2010 4-3 DT he has little to no value for a 3-4 scheme. JMO
Kingfish Posted March 5, 2010 Posted March 5, 2010 Didn't the Bills try to sign him once before? I know they tried to get Pickett a few years ago.
NY Nole Posted March 5, 2010 Posted March 5, 2010 Maybe this wasn't such a good year to switch to the 4-3 .....Suh, McCoy and a few free agent tackles out there. Just sayin'
rstencel Posted March 5, 2010 Posted March 5, 2010 4-3 DT he has little to no value for a 3-4 scheme. JMO Yes he played in 4-3 but he has size and strength to be a NT in 3-4, and is stout against the run. If can get him, I would be happy, as long as they also grabbed someone in the draft, because odds are he doesn't make it through the whole season healthy with his knee issues, unless he is in a platoon.
Ghost of Rob Johnson Posted March 5, 2010 Posted March 5, 2010 Yes he played in 4-3 but he has size and strength to be a NT in 3-4, and is stout against the run.

Your right, was thinking of DT Jamal Williams that the Chargers released when replied to this. Not sure how got them confused in my head, expecially since Williams did play in 3-4. Lewis doesnt have the speed to move outside, but is a very good D-Lineman when healthy. Isnt a good fit for 3-4 as your main DT as you pointed out, although he is very strong at point of attack, and may be able to be a rotational type for passrushing downs in 3-4.
