NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reported Monday that Robert Saleh will fill the position under new head coach Kyle Shanahan.

Whispered about as a possible hire for Anthony Lynn's Chargers, Saleh now heads west from Jacksonville, where he spent the past three seasons as the Jaguars' linebackers coach. Prior to that stop, Selah worked for the Seahawks from 2011 to 2013 as Seattle's defensive quality control aide.
Saleh is a 4-3 guy?

"However, the Jaguars run an attacking 4-3 hybrid defense, so Jackson will have to transition into the role of a 3-tech defensive tackle for his main position, as well as a 7-tech defensive end when Jared Odrick isn't on the field, which closely resembles the 5-tech role he played in Denver."
Is this good or bad?

Could spell the end of AA.
So Buckner is now a 4-3 DT? And Armstead/Blair are 4-3 DEs?

Does this put more value for us taking J. Allen at #2?

need to cut the losses anyway. dude is a bust.
Last time we ran the 4-3 our D was horrible! It was like night and day when we switched to the 3-4!
lol
He'll bring over that winning culture from Jacksonville that Jed wants to establish.

Hiring another guy who's never done the job before.... Get ready for more terrible defense.
