One thing I learned after the pile-on I suffered in the draft forum recently is that, in lieu of the outstanding job Veach has done rebuilding the OL, we've all kind of downplayed the severity of the situation at DE.
Frank Clark is the only clearly starting DE on the roster.
If he gets hurt, which he will because he always does, our starting DEs will probably be Mike Danna and Taco Charlton, with Tim Ward and Joshua Kaindoh rotating in.
That's just not going to get it done, folks.
I'm going to lay out some options that I can foresee, let me know what you think is most likely. [Reply]

well let's just sign 6 pro bowl DE's then.
Jesus christ, man, you guys.
This is a process. We found some guys who could play some last year. We added a guy this year. We'll sign a vet that gives you something you count on, and you ****ing roll with it.
Damn.
You can't make every single position stocked full and two deep in elite players. It ain't Madden football. [Reply]

I think we're respectable there. We're not world class like the Bucs but we're ok... [Reply]
is Ryan Kerrigan getting too old now? He's had such a damn good career but the last 2 years 5.5 sacks each. But I'd take a chance on him for a good price, if we can even afford it. [Reply]

He’s more of a rotational guy, plus they added Montez Sweat and Chase Young. It dropped his snap counts in 19 and 20. Don’t believe injuries were an issue. [Reply]
