You have a Reddick type in Abdullah already though. De Lugo is overreacting a bit on twitter too. Assumes Armstead at DE more now instead of DT, implying that's a bad thing somehow...

Think about it. It's 3rd and 10 and you have, potentially, this pass rushing package:

OLB - Joshua Hines-Allen
DE - Arik Armstead
DT - DaVon Hamilton
DT - Maason Smith
OLB/DE/EDGE - Travon Walker

You don't have to send all 5 neither, depending on the offense you're facing, it's not like Hines-Allen and Walker can't creep up and drop back into zone coverages or run stunts inside around the amount of beef we'd have inside now as well.

One wouldn't make a lot of rosters and one is an All Pro pass rusher.  If they felt they had the cap space and really liked Reddick having Abdullah wouldn't stop me from adding Hassan. 

 Reddick would be cheaper than Hunter who they really wanted but I think it's what they see in Cole.  We need a good pass rusher behind Walker and Allen, if either goes down that guy you thought was your 3rd pass rusher is your starter.  I think they didn't have Gipson 3rd or even 4th on their depth chart because I don't think they would have traded him for a late pick if he was.  Unless they have someone new in mind they bring in or trade for.
