Don't agree here. I think it used to be that way but now that passing games are becoming more complex, you not only need a guy who can rush like Ware and tackle like Carter but you have to cover like Lee and you have to be big as well. That is a harder athlete to find. It's basically the same guy as a DE but he has to be able to cover. DE's don't have to do that.
