Making the transition from the 4-3 to 3-4 defensive scheme might end up to be a great move for the New York Giants, but finding the right players for the system will require time. General manager Dave Gettleman traded for former Rams linebacker Alec Ogletree earlier this offseason, allocating roughly $10 million per-year to the six-year veteran.
Ogletree has had tremendous success in the past, primarily as a run-stopping linebacker who manages the defense from the MIC position. He’s a physical and powerful linebacker with the ability to hunt down runners and stop them in their tracks.
