DL makes sense, but with the additions of Jaylon Moore and Kristian Fulton, I think you have enough pretty much everywhere that there is NOT a position you have to lock in on.

And that's where you want to be. In all likelihood, it seems like the best player available is most likely to be a defensive lineman. But if you get a chance to add either of those guys as weapons for this offense, I think you do it.

It future-proofs you at WR and keeps your room extremely cheap heading into 2026 (3 rookie deals, one eligible for an extension). Which gives you tremendous flexibility to stack the roster elsewhere.

Everyone talks about the benefits of cheap rookie deals at QB, but WR is entering the territory where having an inexpensive but highly productive room is a huge roster advantage, too.

I’d be all for Egbuka or Burden at 31.

It would be great to have some flexibility when it’s time to pay Rice.
