The team seems to think Dunlap is best at OLB when in a 3-4, but I personally think he's a better fit at 3-4 DE.
For Atkins, he doesn't fit at 3-4 NT, but perhaps the team feels he's too short and/or heavy for DE.
Yes, there is something to be said for this....and it appears that the team is trying to move to a 3-4 scheme. As it is now, it looks like a hybrid. If the team is indeed moving to a 3-4, the Reader acquisition looks even smarter now...but there will definitely be growing pains as the personnel has been geared to a 4-3 for almost 20 years. If they can't adapt, then you need to move them.
