I think you're overestimating how hard it is to find a run stopper. Probably the two best of the last half decade have been Snacks Harrison and Michael Pierce. They were both undrafted. Pierce is a FA and so is DJ Reader who is also excellent at stopping the run and was a 5th rounder.

The problem isn't that it's hard to find a guy to stuff the run, it's just that we didn't even try to have a capable one behind Dareus. Which is how the league is trending in general. If they prioritize it they'll find one and it doesn't have to be with huge draft/FA capital.
