I still want to know the logic behind taking two LB/DE tweeners - doesn't seem to make sense. If we stay in a 4-3, at least one may be a situational pass rusher only - you need more than a situational player in the 1st round. If they go 3-4 we will need a big DE (Spears), they can't do it with the DL they have now.
Finally, you don't draft just to take advantage of one teams flaws - what if the Eagles upgrade at OT - then we've drafted just to attack them and now it's a bust. Then what happens against teams that can't handle bull rushing DE's - are we just ill prepared to play them? You build your team to have success regardless of the other team's strengths and weeknesses - otherwise you build a team with its own flaws that can be taken advantage of.
