Offensive Philosophy - West Coast Offense Base offense will feature a 2 TE set. OL philosophy is a Zone Blocking Scheme with a strong interior and players who can get to the second level. Versatility was very important. Depth Chart Offense: QB QB1: Russell Wilson - Accurate Qb whose mobility is a great fit for the West Coast Offense. QB2: Chad Henne - Less mobile and accurate but can manage a game. In this case, just turn and hand off. RB RB1: Trent Richardson - Clear starter. Good between tackles with good speed. Ace in pass game. RB2: Shonn Greene - He got 1000 yards for the Jets. With Mark Sanchez as his QB and 8 man fronts. RB3: Moreno - Finally came to life late last year. Talent has always been there. RB4: Bryce Brown - Change of pace back with bg play ability. RB5: Marcus Lattimore - Could eventually start but hes getting a redshirt year unless pressed in to duty. Will eventually be the best back from this draft imo. WR WR Z: Mike Wallace - Laurent Robinson - Split Ends who stretch the field. Smith fits as well. WR X: Steve Smith - Lestar Jean - Flankers who can make plays short or deep. Tate fits as well. Slot: Golden Tate - Ace Sanders - Short area speed was a priority here. Can use Jean or Robinson's height since Robinson excelled there with Dallas in 2011. OL LT: Roger Saffold - Kyle Long - Light but agile. Saffold has done well 2 of the last 3 years. Long is insurance and a great LT prospect. Long can play guard as well. LG: Matt Slauson - Paul McQuistan - Joe Berger - Slauson is one of the more underrated guards around. McQuistan started for Seattle in 2011. C: Max Unger - Joe Berger - Unger is elite but dominant as a run blocker. Berger is there because he can play all 3 interior OL positions. RG: John Moffitt - Joe Berger - Paul McQuistan - Osemele - Lots of depth and good run blockers. Osemele played well there in 2012.... RT: Kelechi Osemele - Sean Locklear - But Osemele was even better in the playoffs as a RT. Locklear is insurance in case Osemele has to be kicked inside to RG. Defense depth charts...Primary defense is a 3-3-5 but we will feature 3-4 and 4-3 looks as well because we have the personnel to do so and to keep QB's guessing. Smart football players were a priority. In the 3-3-5 we will use press man coverage with over the top safety help (cover 2 press man). 3-3-5 Base Defense: Closed End (LDE) - Lines up over outside shoulder of RG as a 3 technique - Justin Smith/Justin Bannan - Powerful DE played closed end with SF and will have similar responsibility here Nose Tackle - Lines up in 0 technique directly over C - Terrence Cody/Abrayo Franklin/Torell Troup - All these player anchor well and while they wont get a lot of QB pressure they are stout vs the run and have played this spot before. Open End (RDE) - Lines up in 3 technique with the idea to have him matched up on the LG - Derrick Morgan/Austen Lane - Morgan had a tremendous sophomore season after a poor rookie year. Lane can sub in. Leo LB (LOLB) - Bruce Irvin/Akeem Ayers - Irvin is an absolute beast as a rusher and his speed is what makes this hybrid D possible. Ayers shifts from Joker LB when Irvin is rested. MLB - Bobby Wagner/Leroy Hill/Manti Te'o - This position needs a player that can run, call out assignments and cover. Joker LB (ROLB) - Akeem Ayers/Manti Te'o - Ayers had a great year last year in this role for Tennesee. The only difference was that it came out of a 4-3 front. Te'o is a downhill player so he can also assume this role. CB1 - Richard Sherman - Best CB last year. PFF's best rating score wise since Revis in 2010. CB2 - Champ Bailey - Older but had a solid year last year matching up vs teams #1's. Slot - Brandon Boykin - 2nd year player with a high upside Dime - Richard Marshall - Does his best work inside and now he will stay there. Will play FS in case of injury 5th CB - Logan Ryan/Jerron Johnson - 2 developmental guys with nice upsides. FS - Earl Thomas - One of the games best safeties will lend over the top help on Bailey's side at all times. SS - Kerry Rhodes - Solid player who causes turnovers. Better in the box safety at this point. 3-4 Defense - Traditional 3-4 base D look with the same coverage techniques. For that reason I'm only listing the front 7 here. Closed End (LDE) - Lines up on the outside shoulder of RG as a 3 technique - Justin Smith/Justin Bannan - Powerful DE played closed end with SF and will have similar responsibility here Nose Tackle - Lines up in 0 technique directly over C - Terrence Cody/Abrayo Franklin/Torell Troup - All these player anchor well and while they wont get a lot of QB pressure they are stout vs the run and have played this spot before. Open End (RDE) - Lines up in 3 technique with the idea to have him matched up on the LG - Derrick Morgan/Austen Lane - Morgan had a tremendous sophomore season after a poor rookie year. Lane can sub in. LOLB - Bruce Irvin/Keith Rivers - Again, just get after the QB and play downhill. LILB - Bobby Wagner/ Thomas Davis - Aligning him here behind a 3 technique in Smith will keep linemen off him. Guard on Smith, RT on Irvin, C on RILB allows Wagner/Davis to run free and make plays. RILB - Manti Te'o/Keith Brooking - Defeat the C and play as kind of a robber in the passing game. Can also be used as a shadow in pass D. ROLB - Akeem Ayers/Keith Rivers - 7 sacks/4 hits/10 hurries in just 133 pass rushing snaps last year for Tennessee. Had 45 stops so he can definitely make plays at or around the LOS. 4-3 Defensive Alignment - Like 3-4, Im only listing the front 7 since the secondary coverages will remain the same. Will primarily use this in instances where we want to pressure the QB. Isolating Justin Smith inside is a big part of why this works as we like him in the "Justin Tuck role" staying in a 3 technique and isolated on a guard. LDE - Bruce Irvin/Austen Lane LDT - Justin Smith - Under Tackle, 3 technique RDT - Terrence Cody/Abrayo Franklin - Over Tackle, 1 technique RDE - Derrick Morgan/Austen Lane WOLB - Thomas Davis/Leroy Hill - Cover flats MLB - Bobby Wagner/Manti Te'o SOLB - Akeem Ayers/Keith Rivers - Cover flats, will blitz. Special Teams K: Rian Lindell P: Mike Scifres LOS: Max Unger KR: Ace Sanders/Bryce Brown PR: Ace Sanders/Bryce Brown
