Teams want sacks, too. I can't remember many 3.5 sack DE's or rush LB's getting big time contracts on the open market.
There's more to playing DE than sacks and I think most people get that...but sacks aren't something to just shrug off. A sack ends a drive 9 times out of 10.
Takes away a down and yardage. Plus they can rattle the QB.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
