I’m starting to think that as well. Expand I think it's a little early to be thinking about trading AJE. We haven't kept just 4 DE's in a good many years. We'll be keeping 5 (at times, we've kept 6) and Hoecht will be roster exempt for the length of his suspension. Bosa isn't going to be taking more than 50% of snaps. He'll likely be under that. And to ask a 3rd Round Pick to take 50% (likely more) of the snaps right out of the gate would be a little surprising. I think while Hoecht is on suspension, having Groot, Bosa, AJE, and Jackson as the rotation is a definitive upgrade from what we were doing. I think you keep all of them (plus Solomon as the 5th man on the 53) until Hoecht returns. Lots of things can happen in 6 weeks in the NFL. You don't want to trade AJE away and then someone goes down in the first 6 weeks and you're outright relying on Jackson and Solomon. Especially when Bosa is historically a walking injury waiting to happen. I believe right now, the 53 DE's are pretty obvious. Groot, Bosa, Epenesa, Jackson, and Solomon (with Hoecht on the Suspended list). Come week 7 if everyone stays healthy and Jackson is rocking and rolling ahead of schedule, then you can look to trade Epenesa. Teams who have had injuries or need a better rotation will be more eager for a veteran like Epenesa at that point. But currently, part of the upgrade to me is making sure you have a solid 4. And i'd like to make sure we have a solid 4 before and after Hoecht returns. If Hoecht wasn't suspended, i'd be more open to moving him now. We need to see how Jackson looks in Real Game action and make sure we haven't lost anyone by Week 7 before we move AJE IMO. Edited April 27 by BillsFanForever19 4 2 Quote

Carter is a fringe player IMO Expand I don't think you're going to see anymore tweaking of the Defensive Line. They've addressed it and upgraded it plenty. While I agree with your assessment that Jones should have been replaced - it's clear that Beane doesn't agree. Either way, Jones won't be taking as many reps this year. Sanders is versatile. On passing downs, I think you're going to see packages where Sanders is rushing from the 1T alongside Oliver. Then there will be downs where Walker comes in for Jones. Plays where Sanders comes in for Oliver. Hell, with Walker having a Jordan Phillips style - there may even be plays where he rushes from 3 with Jones or Sanders at 1T. Even Ogunjobi has started at Nose Tackle at points in his career Beane talked about it at his Presser on Saturday. They don't view things as linearly as definitive 3 or definitive 1. They went out and got guys who are versatile. It's not the 90's where a giant tub of goo Nose Tackle was a requirement. It's a passing league now. You want guys with athleticism who can get to the backfield. Obviously, that's what Beane values more. As he said, "if I just wanted a big bodied 1T, I could find a guy in Free Agency. It's the guys who can provide Pass Rush that you want". The Defensive Line is in really good shape, even with Hoecht and Ogunjobi on suspension. It's been upgraded quite a bit. We brought in 3 new Defensive End's and 3 new Defensive Tackles. All of our bigger signings outside of Palmer were DL. We spent Rounds 2-4 (all in the Top 10 of the Round) exclusively on DL. And in doing so we've built a much more talented on paper rotation along the entire Line. I think we should be pretty happy with what we have and I wouldn't mess with it.
