I was nodding until your last statement about our team lack of prioritizing the DL. Last year we paid Suh a ton to play next to AD. AD was drafted high and is now the best paid DL in the league. Brockers was a first round pick and makes mega bucks. We just drafted a new NT last year. We may not be throwing picks at our lines like we do at DB, but I wouldn't say we really skimp here. Another thing is we only use 3 DLs at any one time so we need fewer players for these 3-4 formations. We are supposed to be able to blitz one of the 4 LBs on every play to create a 4 min rush which adds the surprise element. We don't really have those middle blitzers to make the scheme hum. Add a monster MLB who can blitz and swallow up any runners is something we sorely lack.
