Reader is 6'3", 335. He is a run stuffer. 

Sign them both. Let's Go!!

In all seriousness that would solidify the dline and pass rush. 
But injury-wise that would be risky. And it likely means we draft OT in 1, WR in 2 or visa versa and maybe miss out on a strong DT class.

I think it's very important we cash in on a good DT draft class and draft a great DT for the future. 

They need to pair that with signing someone though. And Reader fits our biggest need at NT. 
It'd be ideal to have our rookie come in behind a starter as a NT or 3T and rotate in.
