Edge Rushers a priority

[Mizak]

After seeing what Rams did with Von Miller and Floyd that led to a Super Bowl, other teams are prioritizing edge rushers.

Chargers, DE Bosa, trade for Kalil Mack

Raiders, Re-sign Crosby, Sign LB Chandler Jones

Seahawks, LB Taylor, sign LB Nwosu

49ers, Bosa, undetermined

You think the rest of the NFL teams got the memo?

Game-wrecking defensive line players that get into the backfield were definitely what shaped the playoffs and superbowl this year.

That, combined with the fact that Seattle has failed to assemble enough of a pass rush since Michael Bennett left--even though they keep saying it's a priority--give me hope that they'll prioritize it in the draft. And maybe with a hedge or two in free agency.

This class is loaded with DL talent and I wouldn't be mad if they used first 2-3 draft picks on them. Rebuilt defensive core type guys. Pete's defense wants to rush 4 and play their zones - well, get guys that can actually win 1 on 1 battles. I know trading back at 9 is exciting for hopes to get another 3rd rounder but I would be stoked to just take BPA on DL there.
