It would not be a stretch to think that the Cardinals and 49ers have been feeling more than a little envious of the way the Rams have, in very quick fashion, bolstered their defensive line with significant talent, primarily through the NFL draft.
**The Rams’ Fab 5:**
* DE Jared Verse —- R1 2024
* DT Kobie Turner —- R3 2023
* NT Poona Ford —- UFA LAC
* DT Braden Fiske —- R2 2024
* DE Byron Young —- R3 2023
**The Seahawks** under 2nd year defensive-minded HC Mike Macdonald, have been fast at work to try to create a **Fab 5** of their own.
* ED Demarcus Lawrence —- UFA DAL
* DE Leonard Williams —- Trade/NYG
* NT Byron Murphy II —- R1 2024
* DE Jarren Reed —- R2 2016
* ED Uchenna Nwosu —- UFA LAC
This off-season, the Cardinals and 49ers have taken significant effort to improve their defensive line talent.
**Cardinals' Fab 5:**
* ED Josh Sweat —- UFA PHI
* DE Walter Nolen —- R1 2025
* NT Dalvin Tomlinson —- UFA CLE
* DE Darius Robinson —- R1 2024
* ED Baron Browning —- Trade/DEN re-signed
Note: Plus, the timely additions of UFA Calais Campbell and 2025 3rd round pick ED Jordan Burch.
**The 49ers’ Fab 5:**
* ED Nick Bosa —- R1 2019
* DT Alfred Collins —- R2 2025
* NT C.J. West —- R3 2025
* DE Jordan Elliott —- UFA CLE
* ED Mykel Williams —- R1 2025
Note: The 49ers have now acquired edge rusher Bryce Huff from PHI to reunite him with his former Jets’ HC Robert Saleh.
