Hubbard appears to be washed, Murphy is slower than molasses in pursuit, this team needs another DE. I'm not screaming for NT because I feel like Jackson is going to work out, but he'll still need someone to rotate with. A team needs a complete DL, not just a 3T.

i think it comes down to their evaluation after one season with Jackson on DT in free agency, i do think they will look for a FA DE since they feel more question marks with backups there
