I think youre probably better off, finding faster pass rush DE's and position changing them, to OLB

The LBs all seem to fit the 4-3 mold.

The fix for this I've found is to recruit the big pass rushing DT's that are in the 280-290 range and move them to DE.
This and this. In real life, most 3-4 OLBs are converted DEs and most 3-4 DEs are converted DTs.
