The Rob Ryan Conversation

Recently a friend waited on Rob Ryan in a local restaurant. Knowing that I'm a big Browns fan he called me and asked about a good topic to bring up. The following is a summary of what happened.

As Ryan was paying, he told him to consider moving Shaun Rogers to right end and have Ahtyba Rubin play nose tackle. Ryan paused, thought about it briefly, and replied, "it would work better in a 4-3." After leaving the restaurant Ryan came back in and tipped my friend an extra $50. So I suppose that makes it at least a "fifty dollar idea".

So should Shaun Rogers play right end in the Browns base 3-4 defense? Should he be traded? If so, what is his value?
