Sometimes on outside zone runs a DT can disrupt more than one lineman, but otherwise it is impossible to tie up blockers unless they are trying to block him in the first place.

It's alignment and assignment, agreed.

There seems to be a bit of overstatement on effectiveness of DT vs. LB.  That said, we could really use some new talent in both rooms
