If the Skins decide not to go NT then trade back last first early 2nd and then go RB G CB if that is how they grade out.

Our front 7 was gashed last year.

In fact, we were 29th in DVOA against the run: https://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/teamdef

There were only 3 teams worse than us.

We need top shelf talent at all positions in our front 7.

The Skins suffered after injuries before that D was coming on. A guy like Payne and the defense is almost elite.

Didn't you just make the best argument that the depth on the d line isn't good enough, making it a need?

You know we have two edge guys under contract right now?

You don't draft depth in the first round.

You're thinking one dimensionally. A first round talent would start and one of the scrubs we started last year would back him up.

Our front seven sucked, 1st round talent in our front seven, NO MATTER WHERE, would make a huge difference.

Which scrub would sit Allen or Ionnidis?

Jesus. This is getting stupid.

Our down lineman are Allen, Ionnidis, Hood, McClain, Mcghee, Lanier. Our edge guys are Kerrigan and Smith.

IF YOU DON'T THINK 1ST ROUND TALENT WOULD UPGRADE THAT GROUP, IDK WHAT TO TELL YA.

Just FYI, Dline edge and interior is a ROTATIONAL position.

The team that just won the super bowl realize this better than anyone.

And I would award play time based on merit, the most likely scenario being working the 1st round pick into the rotation slowly. Ionnidis was a different player without Allen next to him, so if anyone would be giving up snaps then probably Ionnidis.
