THE MOST COST EFFECTIVE
Perhaps the best is to draft three players with our first three picks on Day Two, moving around if necessary, and using the tradeable 6th and 7th to make trades more even, if necessary.
Any players brought in will need to learn our system, and likely take a lot of work before they are effective. The run-stuffing ILB role is the most likely to be able to filled. There are many players avaiable in the 4th who could help us build the depth in our front seven. We easily have the place for three. At worst, one would be gone before the season starts, and the two would replace Alexander and Klecko on the roster. The third player could be a backup NT or DE instead of a linebacker convert and compete with Wright for a spot (or Claridge or Izzo or Davis).
BOTTOM LINE
I won't panic if we don't pick a linebaker or DL on Day One. BTW, I think aj suggested this very approach a few weeks ago,
