I have just noticed rookie DBs tend to have more success compared to rookie DTs, so that's why I would lean that way.


I would argue if we're having to suffer through growing pains, why is that not the mentality for Jenkins and Jackson?
Are you thinking they are both trash and won't improve to at least solid within a year or two?

So, two FA's, a 2nd rounder, a 3rd rounder, and a couple of Day 3 picks at a position where you don't rotate that much?  And you're arguing overkill on DT's?

BJ Hill's and Larry O's best sack totals of their careers came when they were together here in '21 and platooning to keep one another fresh.  I think you vastly underestimate the importance of a good IDL rotation.

I'm not giving up on Jenkins or Jackson.  They will still have the opportunity to improve and compete for reps.  They will be anticipated to get a significant amount of PT and contribute.  Now, Zach Carter, I'm giving up on, but if you haven't given up on him, I don't know what to tell you.  But he is a warning about passing on good prospects because you've got guys that haven't shown much that MIGHT develop .  Same with Jackson Carman, Drew Sample, Devon Still, and on and on.
