re: Alexander, Lawrence, and Gary

All 3 of those guys could be on the field at the same time in a 3-4, hell, could argue Gary is good enough to be at DE in 4-3 too and all 3 could play in a 4-3.

But you sell the fact we recruited ZERO DTs and only 2 DE last year and lost some guys to attrition this offseason. We are thin on the DL and can offer immediate playing time. We stand to lose 2 possibly 3 DTs after this season between Thomas, Johnson and then LaCouture.
