The D-line has seen even less draft-related action.

It's been other teams' castoffs, free agents, or long shots taken in the 5th round or later that we've been relying on.
More proof of the defensive implosion that was bound to happen sooner or later.

You forget that Danny Boy went out and bought Dana Stubblefield and Big Daddy Wilkensen to play on the DL. And then he got Bruce Smith. And then he got Albert Haynesworth. With all that talent, who needs to draft defensive linemen? :frusty:
