Why does everyone have us taking a DE??

If Smoot goes, I think they need to look hard at a corner to replace him, but there could be some decent FA's available that could step right in.

Yeah we should have tried to keep Lang around a little longer to see what he could do. Also in reguards to Smoot, if he leaves I could see us starting Harris and either drafting a CB with potential later or picking up a young free agent for nickle.
