    That probably removes the Jets chances of finding a 3-4 DE in free agency. They'll likely need to find their replacement for KVO in the draft unless they find a NT somewhere and try the D-Rob to DE experiment.

    Dropping like flies.

    So who received the franchise tag this year that didn't 'deserve' it?

    Justin Smith, Charles Grant, and Corey Redding - any others?

    that is why the lions suck. Redding doesn't deserve big money.

    Well supposedly Adalius Thomas (from the Ravens) could be availalbe if not franchised, for which the deadline is today. He can be a 3-4 OLB/DE for us.

    Unless they franchise him, the Cowboys have a free agent we could use but that is about it at DE.

    Between now and the draft, a lot of guys can be cut..

    That's absolutely true, however in this cap rich season I doubt anybody who would be a plus at DE is going to hit the skids before the draft.

    Even in June it's going to be tough to get a value pickup off the waiver wire regardless of what you're willing to spend.

    Kenyon Coleman is the last guy out there with decent experience in Parcells 3-4, to translate to Mangini's 3-4 and has had some success.
