Absolutely. They should get both Jenkins and Ian Scott if they don't use their draft picks for D-linemen. My personal feeling is that Griffin and Salave's are both done; that they have been totally milked for all they're worth. The biggest fear I have is that the coaching staff believes they are fine with the current front four.
If Ian Scott is available now, why haven't they snatched him up? They've shown interest in every other aspect of defense (linebacker and secondary) other than the defensive line. That's why I'm starting to have this feeling that maybe they're not even considering DE or DT. Maybe they felt like last year's drafting of Golston and Montgomery, along with the signing of Andre Carter shored up any weaknesses at the front four.
The more I hear about Landry, the less irate I feel like I would be if we actually drafted him -- but that's assuming they pick up a defensive tackle or end somehow, somewhere. I'd be fitted for a straight-jacket if they completely ignore the front four and went for Landry then did something really stupid and pulled off a trade for an offensive guard or something.
