Wrong wrong and wrong. I don't think you could possibly be more wrong.
For DL it is clearly Gaines Adams. Think simeon rice...and the conversation is over. Plus you're a moron for thinking sacks don't matter. They were 3x a tackle last year. The best guys, obviously, racked up tackles AND sacks. Now that they're 4x you'll see more passrushers slipping in. Either way, Adams in TB is >>>> Carriker in St.L.
LB is clearly Willis. Ray Lewis was putting up 150-160 tackles with Mike Nolan and expect Willis to do the same. His defense funnels guys to that position just like the bears funnel guys to the WLB. Yeah, Poz is playing in a good position, too, but many consider him out of position at MLB, and though the difference between their upsides may not be great, the "sure thing" is Willis. I don't think Beason is far behind them, either.
DB's cannot be Landry. Even Sean Taylor hasn't put up numbers in their system. And yeah, Landry will be playing closer to the line but not close enough to get significant numbers ahead of their three stellar LBs. From a fantasy perspective, I think either Griffin or Nelson will be better picks. Look at what Hope did in Tennessee...seriously, Hope. And Nelson should be the beneficiary of a lot of teams being forced to pass because they cannot run. Griffin has a shot at 100 tackles and a few INTs, Nelson will probably be looking at 85-90 tackles and a few INTs. Landry will be upside at just under that.

All Carriker has to do to offeset Gaines Adams (who's a bust anyways) 1 sack is get three measley tackles. The scoring in this leauge is ****ed up, and you finally went out and did some things to change it but reverted mostly to the old ways when people were unhappy.
INT's actually manage to matter less than sacks, it's all about tackles in this league. Landry plays close to the line, Landry gets tackles. A guy could get 10 INTs on the season and not finish in the top 10 in DB scoring in this whacked out league.
Willis to me is personal preference. I have no need for him, and I'll tkae a different guy later on.
--edit-- I agree with TBT howver, Merriweather is a good DB pick.
