I would think these two guys would be DE targets

Should the Eagles (as expected) allow Brandon Graham to walk in FA, and they go after guys in the draft AND FA:

**Preston Smith - foreskins
From when he was drafted in 2015:

Preston Smith could make the right team happy

Retired NFL defensive end Stephen White believes Mississippi State defensive end Preston Smith could have a long career at the next level if he lands with a team that knows how to use him properly.

**Za'Darius Smith - Ravens
A review from an early 2018 season game:

Za’Darius Smith Is Making an Early Statement in Contract Year

https://www.baltimoreravens.com/news/za-darius-smith-is-making-an-early-statement-in-contract-year

Outside linebacker Za’Darius Smith, who paid homage to Ray Lewis with a ‘Squirrel Dance’ on Sunday, has been among the NFL’s top pass rushers through three weeks.

Biggest issue is that both guys have been playing as 3-4 OLB since they entered the league. Drafting a DE and signing a FA might push Chris Long to retire or ask for his release after repeatedly saying he'd like more snaps.

Chris Long deserves a season with the Super Man patch on his jersey.
