To me this is the "Ray Lewis" argument.
Ray Lewis was great in run support but DV/Saunders isolated him and removed him. He never made a play of any import that game.
Back when the FB was more prominent in every offense it was much easier to isolate a LB.
My argument would be that he (DT) had a number of Tackles for Loss and his season stats for tackles are debatable but impressive...
