Dallas Cowboys LB Sean Lee said he does not think it will be a big change for the defense to move to a 4-3 defensive alignment because they lined up in it at times this season and believes the team has the players to make the transition. 'I don't think it's as big a move as people think,' Lee said. 'We've played 4-3 in different situations, even with [former Dallas Cowboys head coach Wade Phillips] and the way the defensive line lined up. There were aspects of the 4-3 there. Now there's obviously going to be a learning curve and it's going to be tough and it's going to take some work, but I think we have the guys that are athletic enough and versatile enough to be able to transition to this 4-3.'

Dallas Cowboys scouting director Larry Lacewell said Friday, Jan. 11, that LB Sean Lee will be 'absolutely great' in the team's new 4-3 Tampa 2 scheme under new defensive coordinator Monte Kiffin. 'He's absolutely great, and when you become a Mike (in a 4-3), that means you're a whole-field player,' Lacewell said. 'In the 3-4, you're a half-the-field player a lot of times. It's just going to add to his greatness.'
