Default RE: rye cover crop like corn?

i pay about 10$ for a 50lb bag. volume wise rye is much lighter than corn and i was just dreaming for a moment that i could use it as a substitute. im positive its deer that are pawing it up. i have kicked up deer with heads down feeding out of my cleared out plots. im talking small 80 ft. by 30 ft plots. there is nothing growing. i cover the seed with pines needles that i fling over them with the rake. there is nothing else growing in the soil maybe some moss. finally got some rain maybe the seed will pop.
