We also don’t have Chris Jones trying to convert to DE, he can work on getting his body back to DT size.

If he decides to sign Clowney or trade for a DE like Quinn, we will be improved greatly on the DL and will have an extra pick in a great draft class to work with next year. |

But being serious, absolutely. Ingram was a good fit and a real value add for the team. Maybe he wanted to be in Miami? Veach can't hold him at gunpoint but can at least take steps to make sure we get a decent comp pick if we lose the guy. Then pivot to the other options. Just as Ingram didn't seem like he was the holy grail when we picked him up, no one we bring in will seem that way. But pair one of the four on your list with a first round pick, and while the DL still won't be what I hoped it would a couple months ago, that's balanced by the fact that our secondary will be better than I had expected. I can live with that. |

Seems like maybe taking that approach again is a fools errand given the the entire division has improved significantly and we don’t have the kind of margin for error we did the last several years.

backwards. We're approaching the point where we're just going to have to roll with what we have. I too like the additions in the secondary and am hopeful that they'll be better as a unit. However, the best way to ensure the defense as a whole improves is to have better D-Line play. It's the one thing that can make the biggest difference across the board.

And he CHOSE to let Ingram sign in Miami and not match the offer.
Veach said that after the OBJ deal is done he will have the resources to make a big move and that right now he only has the resources to make a small one. Trust me when I say he’s not done at DE. |

How many million do we have to be under the cap in order to make that move? And where is that move coming from? Are there a bunch of young great DEs on the trade block right now just waiting for a trade?

We all assumed that we'd be without Clark. We mostly all assumed that we'd still retain Ingram. Both of these are shocks to the system. I feel like some of you don't view a first round edge rusher as a real investment in the DL and I'm confused by that. Let's see where we are holistically in August. |

And his options (and thus his leverage) dwindle by the day. Frankly I hope he’s done at this point. Frank Clark was the last move he made when he get backed into a corner. Watching him get prison raped in a long-term deal for Clowney or give up a 2nd rounder for Quinn seems more his speed though.
