Michael Pierce is more suited to be nose tackles. They might be able to play a 1 technique in a 4-3 well but not a 3 technique. It doesn't maximize their strengths. 4-3 DT = 3-4 DE in terms of build, size, and skillset. Nose tackle on the other hand is a completely different story.
He’d be a solid 4-3 run stopping DT but there are better options for 4-3 DTs.
Yeah like Micheal Pierce and Kenny Clark or shelden rankins from this same promo
