Bunkley as a NT in Denver:
not only has he played NT in the 3-4 before, he was the best in the NFL at it
quote:
The Broncos made Bunkley their 3-4 nose tackle at the beginning of the season and he instantly thrived. The Florida State product had three stops – plays he ended alone -- in Denver’s season-opener against the Raiders and never quit stuffing the run. Bunkley for the year had 32 stops in 485 snaps. No other defensive tackle with fewer than 500 snaps had as many as 23. Bunkley's penchant for ending plays by himself earned him a plus-28.4 grade in the ground game and the No. 1 overall ranking among defensive tackles against the run.
not only has he played NT in the 3-4 before, he was the best in the NFL at it

I am well aware. In fact I posted a similar blurb in another thread earlier today.
I am just sparking discussion here. And TYPICALLY, a NT is a lot bigger.
