What is most difficult is finding a good pass rusher that can also drop back into coverage or play in space effectively. I disagree that a great 4-3 DE is harder to find than a great 3-4 OLB.
I think a good coordinator can scheme an OLB more effectively though. Move them around for good matchups, disguising pre-snap. It's harder to fake performance at DE. If only we had someone talented scheming the defense.
