Pass rush you can’t throw a rookie at and just improve. And good pass rush prospects go early. There is no situational guy left that is going to move the needle. Resigning Houston is not going to fix it. It’s been one of the biggest reasons we are not winning more games and progressing in the playoffs. It is holding this defense back. This defense faded down the stretch and QBR went up the more the season progressed.

I wouldnt be shocked if Smith got moved if they could have the rookie play RT. BTW, Smith wasnt a first rounder but played like one. I believe Smith did play some LT in college, so its not that big of a stretch to move over.
Smith is going to get paid like a LT when his contract rolls over, might as well play LT
