One of my MP leagues advanced to free agency this morning. My team plays a True 3-4 (as opposed to 3-4 Eagle or one of the 4-3 options.) Here's what a search on 3-4 DEs looks like. Note that even thought it's ordered by "current value," it's not as simple as the "Current" overall rating ordering that you'd see in the past.

A really good example of this being scheme-specific is DE Henry. He's got solid overall at 61, and excels in pass rushing both ratings-wise (upper 60s/low 70s) and in production (11.5 sacks and 15 hurries last season,) yet he's only the #15 option for my team. Why so low? Primarily because he weighs 273--too small for a 3-4 DE. And to answer your question in the other thread about the draft, D7 guys
all have an "Ideal Front Fit" listed on their player cads. Henry's is "4-3 DE."
