And there were only about 4 teams I can think of running the 3-4 at the time, so there was less competition for some of those type of players. Sandy Eggo, Baltimore, Dallas and Pittsburg are the only ones I can think of running the 3-4 at that time.
One of the advantages of the 3-4 discussed during that time frame was their ability to grab the "tweener" tackles and light DEs for the OLB spots.
