How good is this defense?

You add a big nasty NT who requires consistent double-teams to the D-line, and we can start generating pressure rushing 4 out of our base cover zone, and actually cover some of that underneath stuff on 2nd and long, 3rd and long situations. As is it, we allow teams to convert on 3rd and long way too often over the middle of the field, because we have send LBs and DBs after the quarterback.

On offense, I'd like to see another consistent deep threat at WR. If we had another guy like Hilton who could pose a decision for opposing defenses on who to double-cover, with the line we have, this offense becomes almost impossible to stop.

I think a dominating 3 tech is always better than the nt.
