This is one of the reasons I loathed the idea of going to a 3-4. We're nearing critical mass in terms of lagging behind in linebacker depth and talent, and our defensive line was horrendous last year and lost a ton of experience.
When you go to the 3/4, you then have different types of bodies that qualify to play the OLB position.
You're looking at the depth chart with 4-3 blinders on. Its not the same. Its not the same type of LB at your outside spots. Personally, I think our personel fits the 3-4 scheme much better than the 4-3 scheme.

Trust me, I understand the schematic and personnel differences of the 3-4, specifically at the OLB spot. I'd simply contest the notion that our personnel fits the scheme outside of guys like Ramsey at OLB and Agim at the 5-tech. I don't see a 0 technique on this roster, and I'm not sure we have anyone who can two-gap outside of Agim (maybe Capps?) We have a solid tweener who fits the OLB/standup DE role in Ramsey because of what we had him do last year, but that's about it. It's not as simple as just looking at heights and weights.
