your cutting Cullen Jenkins and Mike Patterson.... does that mean you expect Brandon Williams (drafted 4th round) to start at DT?

I really like Williams and I'm comortable with him, Thornton and Dixon (assuming he is back to 2011 form) duking it out for the starter opposite Cox.

There are also some decent veteran options available in free agency as well (Knighton, Dorsey, Jones, etc.) if we decide to go that route.

It'd be hard to get dead two dead weight players that are making 13-15 million a year to restructure and accept a trade.
