DT disparity is maybe that the franchise tag numbers are “overvaluing” DEs due to their much more pronounced presence on stat sheets? I.E. the GMs and coaches who build a team know that interior lineplay is just as important as the edge (hence the relativly similar draft value), but agents of 10+ sack guys do not allow their clients to paid like 3-sack DTs and hence the overall skewage of contract (and thererfor: franchise tag) numbers?
