Chris Long is expected to be let go after the season

[Clayton]

He's already renegotiated his current contract at least once. Plus, not only is Long a potential casualty, but both backups are free agents next season (Hayes, Sims). DE is a good possibility in this week's draft, but I wouldn't expect an early pick used there.

My expectation out of the first 4 picks of the draft is 2 olinemen, a WR and a defensive player so they certainly could go DE. Outside chance at a QB (Grayson would be my guess) but I think its pretty unlikely.

Ethan Westbrooks is very capable. Sims will resign. Hayes may go. Nick Fairly offers versatility also.

I seriously doubt we draft a defensive lineman this year.
