Build the Saints' 3-4 Defense

He makes tackles on run plays on avg 3-4 deep up field.

He will get demolished in a 3-4 system. I'm talking abused.

His strengths are 4-3 in the NFL and then it's a toss up.

1st round draft pick can't even start smh

Still didn’t answer my question. How would his responsibilities as a 3tech in a 3-4 under 1 gap system differ than in a 4-3 3 tech? I’d argue a 3-4 defensive end 3 tech has less run responsibilities than in a 3-4 with there being more defenders at the line. It’s the entire reason most DT/DE tweeters are used in the 3-4 DE position.

Also most of his run defense woes were due to him being forced to play nose tackle in the nickel so cam Jordan could move inside to 3 tech. Make Bresee a permanent 3 tech and he will be fine.
