A 3-4 defensive alignment would allow the Bucs to utilize Kendell Beckwith more. He's done a terrific job stepping in for Kwon Alexander at middle linebacker, which was his position at LSU. The Atlanta Falcons did a lot of hybrid stuff when Mike Smith brought in Mike Nolan in Atlanta. Something to keep an eye on.

We've only seen little sprinklings of it here and there. Linebacker is a strength for the Bucs, they've had some injuries up front and they're looking for ways to generate more pressure.
