Hardly a who's who of playmakers, and to a man they are secondary pieces on their teams to the pass rushers who make their defenses go. The role of 4-3 OLB is just not very important. We have our MLB. Pass Rushers and Pass Defenders is what this defense needs.

None of the top 5 4-3 defenses were "Cover-2" schemes....hmm. Maybe that should tell us something.
Also, I wanted us to draft Gocong, McIntosh, Wilkinson, and Greenway when they were coming out. Why? Speed.
I would also add that Keith Bullock is among the who's who of playmakers. We sure could use him.
