But yeah, definitely should look at drafting an edge rusher, even if late in the draft just in case.

Hopefully this is good news for extending Sweat. Maybe they made their choice that Sweat is the better of the two. Otherwise, we are losing 1 of them next year. Can't franchise tag both of them. Also, would be pretty crazy to sign both of them to huge deals after this season.

Gotta say, this is very surprising.

Per Keim, the coaches love Montez Sweat.

Also, the more I think about it, the more I'm not surprised at this move. When Ron took over the team, his 2020 draft was based on whatever information/scouting the previous regime had done. A new coach's first draft is really not theirs, so I can see why there isn't much loyalty.

I wouldn't mind if they trade him tomorrow. It'd be nice to get more picks as always. Especially given how deep this draft is at certain positions.
