Saints running 3-4 defends in 2008? (fan opinion)

How many times are we going to have to go through this? To switch to the 3-4 would mean most of our defenders (our better defenders) would be out of place. Fujita failed in the 3-4, however he has done well in a 4-3. Our three best defenders (Smith, Grant, Fujita) have no place in the 3-4. You would basically have to scrap everything we have. And for those that say play Grant at DE in the 3-4, are you really going to play a 3-4 DE 10+ million a year?


His cap hit isn't near 10 million per year. I think with their recent weight gains, Smith and Grant would do well in a 3-4 defense. It just might revitalize them.

The main problem I see with running 3-4 sets is we'd have to get three new LBers.
