Everyone talks about how the Patriots need younger LB's, CB's and S's, but does anyone else think we could use a fourth 3-4 lineman? Obviously Green is an awesome backup with great 4-3/pass rushing ability, but a lot of our weakness on defense looks to be from the DL... especially when they're on the field a lot, tiring.
Some people think we need a S next year as our first defensive pick. Doesn't it make sense to have a starting calibur DL to spell Seymour, Warren and even Wilfork (and perhaps even replace Seymour)? I know that 300lb DE's are hard to come by, but should Bioli put some effort into it? Was that their plan for a fourth round pick in Kareem Brown that ended up going horribly wrong?
A scenario where Seymour COMES OFF THE BENCH to spell all three DL positions appeals to me, even at the amount he is getting paid.
Edit: Obviously meant Future DL depth
