Good point about Winston. And Jamaal Brown would have been a good choice as it turned out. Although we have yet to have a good pass-rushing LB and we switched to a 4-3 the following year.

I realize this is all speculation but if we had a LB corps of DJ-Willis-Ryans, we could get by with slugs for DTs and still be better at stopping the run than we are now.
