they need certain players to use his 4-3 under front. although the disparity is more due to guys being in different stages of their careers: Sherman and Chancellor were cheap fifth rounders, Browner was an undrafted FA who bounced around, and Wagner is a young bargain. I think five of their back seven players are still on their rookie deals, whereas Jason Jones was a FA signing and Red Bryant netted a five-year extension last off-season.
