Von Miller might go before we pick and the sad thing about it, he might go to a 43 defense like Buffalo runs. He looks like he's better suited for the 34 defense because of his speed. If that's the case we have to think out of the box to get role players at OLB to set up a blue chip NT. There are good OLBs in this draft, but none of them have Miller's speed.
Von Miller would be an even better fit than Orakpo in a 3-4. Considering it's 90% likely Von Miller is gone when we draft, there's still a lot of other great options.

Akeem Ayers isn't suited as a Pittsburgh style 3-4 OLB, but more of a Patriots 3-4 OLB.. Great at tackling and noticeably good in coverage.

Ryan Kerrigan is certainly a natural 4-3 DE, but I would love to see him standing up after seeing the success Lorenzo had.

Justin Houston would be a huge reach despite him being a very good pass rusher.

Martez Wilson will probably go late first round, but I also think he'd be a great draft choice. A natural inside linebacker, but he was one of the top recruits in the country when he was a DE/OLB coming out of high school.
