With JA, Tamba, and Carriker all starting I think we would have three d-linemen that are all consistent, high-effort, 50+ tackles, 10+ sack potential guys. OK, maybe not 10+ sack potential for Carriker playing inside, but I think he would do a good job of getting a push on passing downs. JA and Hali would have both had 10+ sacks this season if our DTs had any ability to crash the pocket constantly.

Are we going to run a 5-2 next year, because Carriker isn't a DT. He may be 300 lbs, but he's much more suited to be an end in a 3-4.
