But, don't see JJ ever becoming that power infiltrator in this scheme...but who knows with a serious off season weight program. Therefore a 4-3 has 4 big guys, more bulk along that line...big quick guys like Heyward. Are they easier to find? Maybe. But, the Giants succeeded where others failed because they got pressure with 4 and not 6. Guys like Manning will eat up a 6 man blitz all day.
