I don't understand the LB assignments in a 3-4. Are the OLB suppose to be real big so they can put their hand down? Is only one suppose to he that type while the other OLB is more of a speed guy? All I know is Bennett would be the NT. Thats about it

I have always understood the 3 lineman as a NT a DT and a DE. So you have a DE/OLB hybrid then a Mike Wheel and Sam as regular. But you really need a NT to fill 2 defenders for it to work. He doesn't have to get a bunch of tackles but he has to take up 2 blocks and not allow one of the guards to get to the second level.
