I totally agree. The ILB's in a 3-4 are probably the least athletic defensive players overall with the smallest range of responsibilities. If you can't succeed at either of those spots, then the NFL ain't for you.
The only thing about ILB in a 3-4 is being durable. It's hard to find guys who are big enough to take the pounding and fast enough not to be terrible in coverage.
