There is no such thing as LBs with the hip swivel, speed, and DB skills to play DB. That is why they are two different positions. That is why they are coached to do two different things. That is why there are 45 roster spots and different players filling each of them.

You might as well ask why we don't get a QB who can catch his own passes so we don't have to waste a spot with a WR.
