Been a question for a while now.

Because we're already in the 4-3 the majority of the time. Doesn't matter what you play if you don't have the talent.

I agree, that's why it doesn't make sense to go 3-4 base on most 1st downs without a true NT?

A good LB is easier to find than a good NT. Also, NT is a bit of a unique animal who occupies a niche roster spot and isn't good for anything else. Why have a guy who can only play the limited number of snaps in base.

From the stand point of finding talent, 4-3 DT are much easier to find in the draft.
