Obviously it is best to get Defensive Coordinator with experience, but if we are going to hire someone else's defensive assistant to be DC, why not our own. These two put together a secondary that was ranked what, 6th or 7th, with a crummy set of linebacker in front of it? I wonder why they aren't getting any play in this discussion......

You definitely need a strategic thinker as the DC. Someone very analytical.
My guess is that a lot of good position coaches are more tactical thinkers. Like if the receiver does this, you do this, etc. And they don't see the game in a big picture format.

I do find it interesting that they are the only two left on that side.

At this point, I'd roll with Livingston. He's viewed as an up and comer like Pleasant. He's familiar with the players already. He even started as a scout before joining the coaching staff.
