Sure it is cockbreath

Jones is a DE in our scheme
Howard is better at the nose

Howard slides over to Poe's NT spot
Jones takes over Howard's DE spot


Now ... that doesn't mean the Poe is gone for sure. Dee Ford was selected and we ended up keeping both Hali and Houston. But it's still an insurance policy and replacement player.

Year 1 - Fisher in the 1st, Albert gone the next year
Year 2 - Ford in the 1st, Hali old, Houston up for big contract the next year
Year 3 - Marcus Peters in the 1st, Sean Smith gone the next year
Year 4 - Chris Jones in the 1st, Poe up for big contract next year

Might as well get used to it, it's a viable maintenance method for consistency in the NFL.
