And Burfict had Top 50 talent but went undrafted due to on-field character concerns.

My point is the Bengals drafted plenty of other LBs but only had good success with LBs with Top 50 talent. I expected Marvin would have been able to do a better job finding mid-to-late round guys and turning them into solid-or-better starters. 
That didn't happen.

Have you ever taken a look at the NFL All Pro roster?  Every single LB on there was taken in the 1st or 2nd round.  When it comes to LBs, only a couple, or perhaps a small handful of really good ones come out each year.
