Oakland Raiders DL Richard Seymour said he likes what he sees from the new defensive scheme implemented by head coach Dennis Allen and defensive coordinator Jason Tarver. The defense intends to be multiple, meaning an infusion of a 3-4 alignment, more zone coverage and frequent blitzing from all over the field. ‘If you want to be one of the best, or one of the elite, in the league, you have to be able to do multiple things,’ Seymour said. ‘Be versatile, playing this front, that front, rush the passer, stop the run, just being an every-down player. That’s how you make yourself valuable. It’s hard work but this is a big-boy league.’
