Only Reyes has been a disappointment on the DL.
The problem in the front 7 hasn't been the DL. It's been a lack of pass rush, which is mostly due to injuries to Attaochu and Ingram, and the ILB position, where Te'o has been out and Butler has been horrible.
So, I'm not sure how much acquiring another DT will really help. I'm not opposed to the idea in principle insomuch as I'm not opposed to upgrading any position, but DT has not been the problem.

A REAL NT would defeat double teams and have at least 6 sacks by now. Maybe your pissing contest with QSmucker is clouding your vision of the obvious?Adipose

I don't think there is much we can do about the pass rush until we get some edge rushers back. I prefer a 43 D, but even if we went that way right now, there are no DE available who could help. We would be stuck with the same crew to play DE, and while I think several of them can do that, we still have the same basic issue. Not enough healthy bodies outside and not enough good blitzers inside (that is where we miss Teo most, IMHO).
