on passing downs, yes. We need someone. Fowler was not a good run defender. There is no pass rusher on the team right except Luvu and the guy we got from the Bears. Scourton is interesting big boom/bust type player like Stewart. Another guy is Jackson from Arkansas. He can do both. If Green, Pearce, or the Bc kid are there at #29 I would be shocked if they passed on them. IF those three are gone at 29 a trade down could happen. Or take Stewart at #29 b/c of his huge upside.
I was just listening to Take Command podcast. They were talking the top 5 DEs who could be what the Commanders need. They agree more with you. They think the Commanders Dline can handle stopping the run now and are lacking the twitchy, fast, possibly undersized pass rusher for third downs.

At the very least it could create options if they don't see an everydown DE that they like.

Besides Armstrong and Luvu we don't have a pass rusher and Armstrong didnt have a great year last year. Huge Need right now.

I agree pass rusher is a huge need.
Fowler outplayed Armstrong but Armstrong appeared to pick it up in the playoffs.
If we get a guy or draft one that is efficient, our secondary situation should be safe

who would be considered a reach at #29 for edge rushers?
Thats a broad question. Theres a kid, i think Burch from Oregon, I'd be pissed if we take him at 29....BUT.....what if he is a 15 sack guy

true. I wouldn't be pissed if we took Jackson from Arkansas at 29 even though it's a little reach.
