I agree on the DT line, but the Strongside DE always has more responsibility against the run. I wasn't reffering to an every down situation either. My point was I can see Weaver in on short yardage situations. and as part of a rotation. Not that he's a great every down DE. He's making way to much money for that, I know, but he's not completely useless on the field depsite what the sack numbers say.
