What's interesting about 2-gap is that the trend is shifting to having a nose that can play somewhat across the line. Wilfork doesn't okay 20 to 25 snaps as many nose tackles do. He is now playing almost all the defensive snaps. It adds a lot of flexibility to have a nose that can rotate into a 5-technique without taking the guy off the field. The 5-technique is still 2-gap. But you see where I'm coming from.
Hence, why they went after Poe. As I've said before,I imagine the chiefs top priority is to get him to learn one position, nose tackle, wel. But in a few months, I bet he plays across the line.
