I hope you realize that if you use Mario as a DE in a 34 you basically lose all the speed he has? A 34 DEs and NTs primary purpose are to occupy the blockers on the line and allow the LBs to flow to the QB from multiple points. IMO, we would be wasting him, Smith and likely Barwin not to mention that other than Cushing we are more than a little light in the butt at LB. Add to that that as far as I know none of our coaching staff are what could be called 34 gurus. So, it doesn't sound like a very good idea at this pint.
