I do agree with Dirt that we are in good shape now with the d-line, although it would help to get guys like J. Jenkins and Nield to camp. I wouldn't mind picking up a Kris Jenkins at a reasonable price, to tutor the young NTs. Cullen Jenkins would be a huge pick up, and it would solidify our d-line.

I'm confused. Are you saying that Shanny was right about converting the 4-3 Bryant to the 3-4?
Or is a 7th round pick (Neild) our NT savior?
Or, lacking these scenarios, don't we still need a NT who is not just a tutor (Kris Jenkins)?
