My issue is they never until now drafted guys or traded for guys like Smith, Willis and Lawson who may never be 3 down DE's or players, but they sure can get after the QB in passing situations and can play against the run, juts can't do it for 60+ plays a game physically.

Most of those sack leaders can play 3 downs. 
It's an old school mentality that most of the league has avoided the last few years. Teams have been trending towards smaller better bending edge rushers, we haven't. 

It's not about size, it's about skills. 
Neither Clarke nor Hunt were ever good vs the run. 
It's just a weird thing they have for size at that spot because it worked with Johnson and Dunlap and then with Fanene and Rucker. 
That was lightning in a bottle but they treated it like a golden rule. 

Im just glad they have finally made the call and added guys like Lawson and Willis. It's about time. There was the Moch experiment but they gave up on that quicker than anything.
