Seems to me as if, on passing downs, you'd want both of them on the field.

If you look at depth charts they are for base defenses, they do not have the situational packages in them. I see Barwin as part of the nickle packages, Mario will move to the LDE, Smith becomes LDT, Okoye stays at RDT, and Barwin become the RDE.
The article that
dadmg posted last week , they talks about the perfect situation for a player to come into the league. I see this as how Barwin will be brought along. We are finally a team that is maturing and we should be glad that 2nd rounder with talent are no longer must starts. It has only taken us how long?
