Why are we aquiring so many run stuffers this offseason?

If we only have 1 run stuffing DT and he gets hurt then we'd be in a bind.

GW likes to rotate on the lines as much as anyone in the league and I like that. Can't ever have too much depth. Ellis is our lone returning DT from last year, but I aint gonna lie I miss Hargrove. Wish him well.

Do we know what motivated Hargrove to leave? Were we unable to offer him enough money?

With Smith, Jordan, Brown and Charleston on the roster he may have had trouble making this team.
