I would much rather have more talent at the point of impact ... the line ... than at linebacker.

but we already have talent on the defensive line. Presently, without Fujita, we just have a 10 man starting defense. Our linebacker pick, whether it's the 64th pick or the 224th pick is going to be that 11th man.
