Jon Gruden Tells Zennie Abraham Oakland Raiders Will Run 4 3 One Gap Defense

While at the NFL Annual Meeting 2018, Oakland Raiders Head Coach Jon Gruden took time to address the kind of defense the team would run under his leadership. Asked by me, Zennie Abraham, if the Raiders would run a one-gap system, Gruden said "We're a 4-3, up the field, one-gap system much like Cincinnati was". What that means is rather than ask a defensive lineman like Maurice Hurst to control a space to either side of an offensive blocker, he would be responsible for just one - and which one varies with the defense that's called. That's a first for the Oakland Raiders, and has not been done since, well, the last time Jon Gruden coached the team. Gruden also said that he would look at the existing players and how well they performed in the new system - and not just find new players for the new system. So look for defenders like Eddie Vanderdoos to have a new life in this new (for the Oakland Raiders) defensive approach. It should pay off in an improved run defense over 2017.
