Could be a Devon Still Brandon Thompson like year. Still was a college stud with some first round grades who slid to the 2nd. Thompson was a projected first rounder really early in the process. He slid all the way to the 3rd.

I think that's a fine situation if it happens. We need to refill our DL. Clarke and Hunt are lost causes barring a miracle. 
Sims is old and FA.
Gilberry is old and FA.
Peko is just old.
Hardison is a complete wildcard. 
Williams is a wildcard too.
The fact that Hardison saw 0 reps is kind of alarming. 
Williams stood out in Pre-Season. If he has a repeat year, he's on the roster. 


Two DTs would be nice. Let Sims and Thompson walk. 
Let Gilberry walk. 
Hardison, Williams and two rookies. 
One rookie is ideally a tweener. 
One rookie is a more balanced DT.
