Hali's getting older and his speed is diminishing, so he'll be less effective as a rushing OLB. That said, his strength seems to be better than ever so why couldn't he be a good power rusher off the right side? Houston is essentially the same size as Clemons but a better athlete, why not try him as an LDE? I think he'd be elite at it. Poe would be a monster as an under-tackle where he can use his unusual speed for his size to really collapse the pocket, especially with that beef from Powe alongside him.
I still think that DJ is a better SAM, but with this roster he would have to play the Mike.
I love this personnel for a 4-3 conversion. You'd need a couple of new OLBs but we need a new DE and one more ILB right now to begin with. So if you're replacing 2 guys off your front 7 in either scheme, why not move to the 4-3 right now?

Spot on.
If Poe is ever going to be worth the pick, it's likely in this role. JMO.
