Del Rio not as a HC, but only 4 times in his tenure with Jacksonville did they draft a LB higher than the 4th round. most of them were ILB tweener types who had to move to OLB.
Fox started Morgan(i think Del Rio was still the DC then) and Beason at MLB in Carolina as rookies. Will Witherspoon replaced Morgan in his rookie year as MLB when Morgan went down with injury.
if you look at the draft history of fox at LB, a guy like Olgetree would make a lot of sense, considering Fox has always had smaller more athletic LB's.
